“There has been a bit of shared history that you haven’t seen,” Isaac told Vanity Fair. Poe is going to become a full on Resistance leader in this film after a year of working to topple the First Order. But since then he’s made a clear decision.” His frequent appearances with new character Jannah (Naomi Ackie) in the new film suggest maybe a love triangle developing alongside Rose, his budding love interest from the last film. “ Episode VIII, he couldn’t decide what team he was fighting for. “I think he’s just an active member of the Resistance now,” Boyega told Vanity Fair. But her and Kylo Ren’s journeys seem intimately tied together, in this film more than any previous, and we don’t know much about either character. We’ll get into a lot of this as we go, but we know that she’ll have spent a year training as a Jedi and that it seems a lot of the film is about her quest for answers about herself and – potentially – how that affects her allegiances. What’s happening to Rey in The Rise Of Skywalker? So, again, that old conflict theory might come back: the man who helped create Darth Vader but was also killed by him. In the final trailer we also saw a glimpse of a thorny throne that might belong to him, marked with a symbol of the Sith. But new lines from him are all over the trailers for the series. Yes he is! Ian McDiarmid, who played him way back when in the original trilogy, confirmed that he’s back in this film. Emperor Palpatine is in The Rise Of Skywalker? Some have suggested it might be Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader, connected into that millennia-long conflict between Jedi and Sith: with Emperor Palpatine present all over the film’s trailers, it seems right that his original foil, Anakin, might play some role in this film too. While Luke Skywalker is definitely in the film, he’ll probably only be there as a "Force ghost". Rei has been postulated, but giving her the artificial title of "Skywalker" seems trite. Lucasfilm Do we know which Skywalker is going to, you know, ‘rise’?Ībsolutely not! Everyone has been a candidate: the only living members of the family are Leia (the late Carrie Fisher) and Kylo Ren, and while Kylo Ren’s journey could potentially fit the title, Leia’s definitely will not (especially as Carrie Fisher passed away before the film was filmed, so she appears via technical trickery). Her bond with Kylo Ren is only going to get more complicated in this film. The film takes place about a year after Episode VIII, with Rey now a pretty complete Jedi.A source told Vanity Fair that, “ Skywalker will at long last bring to a climax the millennia-long conflict between the Jedi order and its dark shadow, the Sith.” More on this, potentially, later.“It was almost like if the Argentine Nazis had sort of got together and actually started to bring that back in some real form,” JJ Abrams told Vanity Fair. We will learn more about the First Order’s origins, born from the vacuum created by the politically inert Republic.There are a few things we do know, however. Oh, you think anyone knows what’s going to happen in a multibillion-dollar blockbuster? I’d laugh in your face if we were in the same room. As eagle-eyed fans have pointed out, only Mandalorians use yellow blasters. However, we might see some of the Mandalorian people: in another snippet from a TV spot, Kylo Ren is seen deep in combat while yellow blasters can be spotted in the background. Probably not much, considering they take place in very different times. Will the Rise Of Skywalker connect into The Mandalorian in any way? sure.įinally, we also catch a brief glimpse of more of Carrie Fisher’s last scene as Leia, cradling her dead brother’s lightsaber. There’s also a brief snippet of Emperor Palpatine (more on him later) where he says, “This will be the final word in the story of Skywalker.” Though this was always going to be the case, so.
