"Star Wars" Episode 8 star Oscar Isaac is bring back daredevil pilot Poe Dameron, whose love life has been hotly speculated. Besides Poe's love life, "Star Wars" Episode 8 is also expected to bring in a new list of heavy-weight cameos, which reportedly will include Tom Hardy.
In a Collider interview Oscar Isaac revealed that Poe Dameron will be showing more of that daring spirit he exhibited in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens." Isaac had, in fact, been filming a cool stunt for Dameron in a "Star Wars" Episode 8 scene right before he came to the Global Fan Screening of "X-Men: Apocalypse" in London.

Collider reports that "Mad Max: Fury Road" actor Tom Hardy may be joining "Star Wars" Episode 8 in a cameo appearance. The "Star Wars" Episode 8 role will reportedly be reminiscent of Daniel Craig's stormtrooper on whom Daisy Ridley's Rey first practiced Jedi mind trick.
Although the details are yet to be made official, Tom Hardy will be a "Star Wars" First Order stormtrooper and will be in a scene with Finn. Tom Hardy will supposedly slap Finn on the bum and congratulate the "Star Wars" character for becoming a "resistance infiltrator."
"Star Wars" Episode 8 is coming to theaters on December 15, 2017. Mark Hamil, Oscar Isaac, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver and John Boyega will be among the returnees for "Star Wars" Episode 8.
