Whatever happened to re-casting characters for whom the original actor has died or is no longer able to film? I feel like having a different actor portraying Tarkin would be far less distracting than a CGI Tarkin.
When it comes to creating a convincing human character using CGI, the technology is just not there yet. I dunno, maybe it’s just me.
Episode III Tarkin looked somewhat ghastly though.
The worst thing is that his character was completely unnecessary in that awful film. Sticking him into the movie when he’s not needed and has terrible makeup and doesn’t even look like the original character gained…what, exactly?
Which brings me to Leah and Tarkin in R1: are they even needed in the film? Or are they just there as easter eggs?
