Samuel L. Jackson and Episode III

Today MTV.com has an article interviewing Samuel L. Jackson where he provides us with a little news about Episode III. In the final installment of George Lucas' fantasy series, due in May 2005, Jackson will reprise his role as Jedi Master Mace Windu. It is widely accepted "Star Wars" lore that all of the Jedi, save for Yoda and Obi-Wan Kenobi, will meet their end in "Episode III." Jackson has gone on record saying he hopes to "not go out like a punk." And recently, he got a cryptic indication that he may be getting his wish.

"I did get an e-mail from the stunt coordinator," he explained, "who said he'd like for me to show up a little early because he has some things we want to work out. So I guess that sounds like I'm gonna go out in a blaze of glory. I'm looking forward to it." We have talked about this before, so this may not be a surprise for anyone.
