I thought the existence of Mortis and The Ones in TCW showed us that both sides(light and dark) are needed to maintain proper balance on a universal level..? /shrug
Originally posted by Darth ThorNah all Serkis has said is that he's a new character in the universe, but was around during the events of prior movies/is aware of them.
Apparently Serkis has already said Snoke's not Plagueis:http://comicbook.com/2016/01/06/andy-serkis-confirms-supreme-leader-snoke-is-not-darth-plagueis/
Granted Plagueis is not is technically not a new character in the Star Wars universe (though he's never appeared in Canon) I don't believe Serkis has flat out said the theory is wrong.
Wouldn't be the first time someone's played coy like this either. *shrug*

The Father: "As the balance of [Mortis] crumbles, so shall war escalate in your galaxy. As my Son has descended into the dark side, so have the Sith gained strength."
-TCW: S03E16
As for the scale in which The Family operates...
The Father: "You cannot imagine what pain it is to have such love for your children, and realize that they could tear the very fabric of our universe."
-TCW: S03E15
The Father: "Do not underestimate my Son. He will seek your ship to escape our isolation, and sow terror through the universe."
-TCW: S03E17
Mortis was a nexus point --a terminus of sorts-- for the entirety of the force...
Kenobi: "What is this place [Mortis]..?"
Qui-Gon(Ghost): "Unlike any other, it is a conduit through which the entire force of the universe flows."
-TCW: S03E15
And The Ones served as universal anchorites for the dark and light sides of the force respectively...
The Father: "My children and I can manipulate the force like no other. Therefore, it was necessary to withdraw from the temporal world and live here as anchorites."
-TCW: S03E15
That's why it was so important to keep BOTH sides balanced on Mortis. If the Son(dark) or Daughter(light) gained too much power/influence/control, it skewed the force-flow of the entire material universe. That's why the Sith became more powerful after the Son went full-evil and inadvertently killed the Daughter--the scales on Mortis tipped heavily in favor of the dark side, and the Sith were amped as a result. This was extremely dangerous because, as The Father said, "too much dark or light would be the undoing of life as you understand it."

"during the course of the interview they say they were told by him that there is no connection between the two."
Not given Serkis's direct quote on the matter though.
Originally posted by Darth ThorYeah I imagine that is just the spin they are putting on it, I can find no record of him mentioning Plagueis anywhere aside from EW's claim.

Originally posted by JediRobin23Two characters share superficial physical characteristics. They must be the same person! Think about it, have we even seen Vader and Snoke in the same room before? Vader never said he couldn't fake his moral redemption and then come back as a malevolent ghost.

That author clearly had a deadline to meet.
