Interview With Vader's Secret Apprentice, Sam Witwer
 Check out this cool segment of a Wizard Universe interview with Sam Witwer, the actor behind Vader's secret apprentice in the upcoming video game The Force Unleashed:
You?re in the new Force Unleashed video game due out next year as the main character?Darth Vader?s Secret Apprentice. How?d you land that gig?
WITWER: I have a friend who works at [Star Wars video game maker] LucasArts, and they unveiled the concept art of what the Secret Apprentice looked like, and apparently it was me. Same bone structure, same haircut, same everything. My friend calls and says, ?We want to bring you in for this role,? and I said ?What role?? and he told me it was Darth Vader?s Secret Apprentice, so I said, ?When and where, dude??
Can you tell us about your character?
WITWER: I can?t tell you the specifics, but I can tell you that Darth Vader discovers someone who is extremely strong in the Force, someone whose raw potential rivals the Emperor, rivals Yoda?.This guy?s a sort of photo negative of Luke Skywalker.
Do you know if he?s getting an action figure from Hasbro?
WITWER: He?s getting at least one figure.
Are you interested in a role on the Star Wars TV show?
WITWER: Anything is possible. While doing the Secret Apprentice, I got a little ambitious and managed to pull out something cool, but I can?t even hint at what that is. There?s going to be a very cool announcement made in the next few months.
