Peter Cushing To Regenerate For Star Wars - Rogue One?

"It's Alive.....It's Alive" is what British actor Peter Cushing shouted out at the top of his voice during his reign as Victor Frankenstein during the 50's/60's/70's in the Hammer Horror films. In December 2016, Star Wars fans will be shouting out the same thing as rumors have began circulating the newspapers and various movie sites saying that Gareth Edwards, director of the 2016 Star Wars anthology spin-off, Rogue One, will be resurrecting original "A New Hope" actor, Peter Cushing as his character Grand Moff Tarkin via the help of the latest state-of-the-art CGI.
The Tarkin character is said to have quite a lengthy pivotal role in the upcoming prequel, which is set between "Revenge Of The Sith" and "A New Hope", showing the further rise of Vader's Empire and the finishing touches on the newly built first Death Star.
I would love to see how Cushing himself comes back to life as his classic and sinister Tarkin character. Hopefully the film makers of this film will go along the lines of how director Alan Taylor brought Arnold Schwarzenegger's younger 80's T-800 Terminator back to life in this years brilliant Terminator revival "Terminator Genisys" by bringing some guy in with the same body type, get the editors to do some heavy research and build themselves a full CGI character through the power of Motion Capture.
And on that note, Gareth Edwards's team ARE in fact looking through hours of archive footage and there's plenty of facial expressions to play about with but not enough full length body shots to go along with as Peter Cushing was a drama queen on set of "A New Hope" and insisted on wearing slippers rather than his costumes black boots.

Tarkin has been brought back for the Star Wars - Rebels tv show, but that's a computer animated series. The only time he's came back in live-action form was with his extremely short-lived 10 seconds or so cameo at the end of 2005's "Revenge Of The Sith", where he shows up on the bridge of one of the star destroyers along with the newly built Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine. He was then played by Australian "Farscape" actor, Wayne Pygram.  

I think they should just bring back Pygram and just fill his face up with prosthetic makeup like how they done it in 2005. Either this or just go ahead with the full CGI figure but could that work for nearly a whole film? They could even just bring in an actor who could just take on the role. I have an actor in mind and I've mentioned it to a few people and they say he'd be good and that actor is another fellow "Doctor Who" star, Christopher Eccleston, but I guess only time will tell if it's a success or not.
