Dominic Monaghan reuniting with J.J. Abrams on Star Wars: Episode IX

August 24, 2018 by Gary Collinson

The Lord of the Rings’ Dominic Monaghan is set to swap Middle-earth for the galaxy far, far away, with Deadline reporting that he is set to reunite with Lost producer J.J. Abrams on Star Wars: Episode IX.

“The galaxy far far away has had almost as much influence as the one I live in, so I am delighted to be involved,” said Monaghan, whose role is being kept under wraps.

The news comes hot on the heels of the first set photos from Episode IX, which feature Finn (John Boyega), Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac) and Chewbacca (Joonas Suotamo).
