Star Wars: Reylo Legacy - Star Wars Celebration Concept Art Photo Circulates Showing a Big Shocker

 


Disney and Lucasfilm’s Sequel Trilogy ended with the divisive 2019 Star Wars film “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker” - which saw Rey and a redeemed Kylo Ren/ Ben Solo teaming up to defeat the resurrected Emperor Palpatine. Directed by J.J. Abrams, the sequel’s changes and final presentation left many fans somewhat disappointed with the wrap up to the new films.

During last weekend’s Star Wars Celebration in Europe, Disney and Lucasfilm officially revealed a new slate of Star Wars films - including one where Daisy Ridley reprises her role as Rey and is a film set 15 years after The Rise of Skywalker. That announcement was reported through many other news sites, but the biggest reveal that’s now going viral is one tweeted by “ThatStarWarsGirl” - showing concept art of a very pregnant Rey in Tatooine carrying what looks to be a child born from Kylo Ren/ Ben Solo’s Force Ghost - which ultimately is the “ReyLo” ship’s legacy.


Take this as you will, and the report comes from a Tweet and an accompanying video made by her as well. Take a look below!

ICYMI: Cal Kestis Returns For Star Wars Jedi: Survivor in 2023

 


Electronic Arts and Respawn Entertainment delivered quite the surprising Star Wars video game experience with 2019's "Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order" - which introduced surviving Jedi Padawan Cal Kestis, his droid BD-1, and the various allies and enemies he encounters as he tries to find purpose and survive the Galactic Empire's purge of surviving Jedi Order five years after the events of Revenge of the Sith. 

Nearly five years after that game's release, we're officially getting a sequel to that story from the same developers - and it debuted on this year's returning Star Wars Celebration at Anaheim to boot. Check out the first teaser trailer for "Star Wars Jedi: Survivor".

At long last - Star Wars fans who attended this year's "Star Wars Celebration" in Chicago and those who tuned in to the livestream segment for the Episode IX panel get the answers they were looking for, as Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy, director J.J. Abrams, and the rest of the cast and crew have presented the official title and trailer for Star Wars Episode IX, aka Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.

The title is mysterious as it is hinting at something connected to the Skywalker Saga - which is ending with this final chapter in the story that began with the origins of Anakin Skywalker and his ascension to Darth Vader, to the coming of Luke Skywalker and Vader's redemption and now this sequel trilogy now wrapping things up. How will things end for Rey, Finn, Poe Dameron, Kylo Ren, and the rest of our heroes including veterans like Chewbacca and the returning Lando Calrissian? We'll see.

Star Wars Episode IX: Leaked retail poster and character pics surface online


Star Wars Celebration is still a few weeks away, but it looks like that won't stop the internet from releasing whatever juicy first looks we can gleam from the as of yet untitled "Star Wars Episode IX" - including a new retail poster and character pics that feature the first look at new costumes leads Rey, Finn,  and Poe have, new female characters Zorii and Jannah, as well as the returning Lando Calrissian! The retail poster also shows off Red Storm Troopers, the first look at the mysterious "Knights of Ren" that Kylo Ren leads, and C-3PO wielding Chewbacca's bowcaster and bandolier?


All this comes via Comic Book Movie (here and here), so it's a good guess that MORE stuff will be revealed as we inch closer to the Celebration, which is expected to officially reveal all the good stuff and possibly a trailer too!

Star Wars: Episode IX - Once again directed by J.J Abrams - will be released on December 2019.

As for the other characters, Finn, Kylo Ren, and Poe Dameron are also seen in snippets of footage that make up the trailer, showing that this will be a darker sequel and a question mark for the future of the Jedi.
