Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi
InStar war : The Force Awakens , the first time Supreme Leader Snoke ( Andy Serkis ) learned about Rey ( Daisy Ridley ) was when he sensed there was an awakening in the Force . presently after , Kylo Ren ( Adam Driver ) came to report tidings that shocked the malevolent leader of The First Order : " The scavenger resistedyou ! " Kylo Ren confirmed his discovery:“She is strong in the Force ! "
The lot of Rey and the raw power she maintain seems to be at the kernel ofStar warfare : The Last Jedi . The Modern trailer released tonight dropped scores of sensational unexampled imagery and naturally ignited legion raw questions that the sequel written and directed by Rian Johnson ( Looper ) must answer . The most polar interrogation , naturally , surround Rey , who we recognise traveled to the outside world of Ahch - To to meet Luke Skywalker ( Mark Hamill ) , the fabled Jedi Master whom she long admired and whose family lightsaber she carries . We also know from the footage we ’ve seen and what has revealed aboutThe Last Jedithus far that theirs is not to be a symmetrical mentoring . Skywalker , the Last Jedi , does n’t want to cultivate Rey and even image the Jedi ending with himself .
As Snoke continues to be shrouded in mystery , we enquire what Snoke ’s ultimate plan is in heed to the two immature people who have the most raw power over the Force in a generation . Kylo Ren , who finalized his twist to the Dark Side when he murder his father Han Solo ( Harrison Ford ) , has been Snoke ’s apprentice since he somehow stole him from the tutelage of Luke Skywaker , his former Jedi Master . But Rey is out there now too , and Rey even trump Kylo in a lightsaber affaire d’honneur on Starkiller Base . The young trailer shows glimpses of some pivotal moments inThe Last Jediand it seems like Rey does encounter Snoke after all at some full stop in the film . There ’s even a atrocious moment where Snoke is torturing Rey . But does he require to kill her ? That seems unlikely . Why have only one apprentice when you could have two ?
Daisy Ridley has spoken about how Rey learn ' you should n’t meet your heroes ' and that her meter preparation with Luke , who does n’t require to train her or even need her on the island at first , does n’t go as expected . Luke even says in the trailer,“This is not die to go the direction you think . “Does Luke ’s hesitancy or his irascibility somehow drive Rey away from him and towards Snoke ? Or does Rey believe for some reason she has the superpower to take on Snoke herself ?
Either way , it seems like Rey falls into Snoke ’s clutches . Having both Kylo Ren and Rey under his thrall would be the greatest consolidation of the power of the Force in this epoch ofStar Wars . It would be the hat whoremaster Palpatine himself never accomplish when he tried to charm Luke Skywalker to his side , especially when his intention was for the unseasoned Skywalker to kill Darth Vader and replace him . When Rey defeated Kylo Ren , he ordered Kylo be get to him so he could"complete his grooming . “For however long Kylo Ren was Snoke ’s prentice , he still was n’t all he could or should have been . The struggle on Starkiller Base immediately proved Rey is already better than Ren is .
If Snoke for some understanding ca n’t have both immature Force exploiter , would Snoke ritual killing Kylo Ren if it meant turning Rey to the Dark Side ? Of of course he would . As for Rey , we cognize she is a good person , but she has yet to be truly test by the Dark Side . It ’s of import to note that Rey to date has never require to become a Jedi , she just wants someone to help her control the power inside her and , in her words,“to show me my position in all this . " What if Rey ’s place turns out to be by Snoke ’s side ?
A third option - judgement from the mo Kylo Ren extends his hand in friendly relationship - is that Kylo Ren and Rey could work together and give up both of their masters towards a new goal : to balance the Force between them . However , that seems like lover shipping that does n’t really have a solid groundwork ( yet ) from where the characters are asThe Last Jedibegins . But who knows what directions the film will take Rey and Kylo Ren ?
As for Snoke , Rey must be a prize worth receive and a swag worth sacrificing anything for - including his current apprentice . After all , if Snoke is referring to Rey in the yarn of the trailer - and he just might be - than he knows Rey is"something truly special”- and deserving any cost .
