I mean, obviously not. They already established the characters and also the actor that played the only decently acted villain (blanking on his name...) died.

Ray Stevenson played Baylan Skoll. He will be sorely missed. It was one of the best new Star Wars characters we've gotten in a long time. I would've loved for his character to be continued but who knows if another actor will do him justice. Ian McShane would probably be awesome but he's pretty busy.

Ian Mcshane is also like 20 years Rays senior. I love him but I'm not sure that's the best recasting choice.
