Actor Domhnall Gleeson has opened up about his Star Wars character General Hux.
The About Time star has admitted you only have to look at him to know he’s a bad guy in the highly-anticipated flick.
“Yeah, I mean you look at him and you realise he’s not a good guy! He’s got an English accent so he can’t be good,” he said.

The Malahide native added that Star Wars director J.J. Abrahams described Hux as “merciless”.
Speaking to Total Film, the Ex-Machina star revealed the reason he took the part was to play something out of the norm.
“Yeah, it’s fun to do different things. I hadn’t played anybody like that before. Star Wars is amazing, J.J. Abrams is amazing, but the thing to do was play something different,” he admitted.
“That’s what got me really excited.”
