Andy Serkis' character name is revealed for Star Wars: The Force Awakens!

Some big news was revealed today by Lucasfilm and Disney concerning a new character for Star Wars: The Force Awakens! Since the news of Andy Serkis' casting for the film fans have wondered who he would be playing. Most assumed, given his background, that he would be playing a character that would involve CGI and motion capture. We now know that these assumptions were correct! A new behind the scenes photo has been released of Serkis in a motion capture suit for his character that in the new film will be named "Supreme Leader Snoke". So far the only piece of information released on the character is his name. As to what/who he is a leader of, why he is leading them, and whether he'll be good or bad (though his voice sounded villainous) we'll have to wait and see.We do know that Andy Serkis was the actor who delivered the narration in the first teaser trailer for the film that was released last November.

What do you think of the name "Supreme Leader Snoke"? What do you think we could expect from this character?
