Take a look at these illustrations of the Elite Praetorian Guard and the First Order stormtroopers with their new weapons below from Star Wars: The Last Jedi.
The site also speculates that, based on some earlier concept art for Kylo Ren for Star Wars: The Force Awakens, that these designs may have ultimately been used for these Praetorian guards.
Director Rian Johnson hinted last month that Supreme Leader Snoke won’t even have much screen time in Star Wars: The Last Jedi, which likely means that the mystery surrounding his origins will be held until Star Wars: Episode IX.
Making Star Wars debuted the artwork earlier today, and revealed new details about these guards.
