It makes sense for the emperor to come back. The episode VI doesn't actually show he's dead. He is thrown off a bridge by Vader. There is some lightening and flashes. However, he is not shown to be dead. And he is already off the Death Star when they blow it up. So they can easily bring him back by coming up with a scenario where he manages to grab something on his way down and survives the drop. And he could then find a plane and get off. And he would be the only one powerful enough to pull off an uprising.

There are a bunch of novels that continue the story after Episode VI. Some of them to do with the children of Han & Leia as well as the 'Clone Emperor'. So Palpatine does make a return of sorts in the mythos. The Thrawn Trilogy is a great read for any Star Wars fan btw.

Extended Universe is no longer canon for Star Wars sequels.

Remember studios are into lying these days. They said the Mandarin wasn't in Iron Man 3 and that turned out to be true. The same thing happened with Khan with Into Darkness. And both involved Disney and JJ Abrams. And the rumor is the narration in the first Star Wars trailer is Andy Serkis is playing Darth Plagueis. Also there's the rumor Lupita Nyong'o may be playing Asajj Ventress, a character from Clone Wars but I heard was originally from one of the books.

There's nothing shown about how Cyborg, Flash, Wonder Woman, or Aquaman fit into the story, so there's plenty left to spoil.

I really hope that they don't pull off an "Age of Ultron" and review every single awesome scene like the two weeks before the movie is out... Avoiding youtube like the plague now because of the spoiler campaign.

Did they decide on the Justice League villain yet?
