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!

The Empire Strikes Back premiered 40 years ago today


Premiering at the Kennedy Center this day 40 years ago just before its theatrical run on May 21, 1980, The Empire Strikes Back is without a doubt one of the biggest sequels to come out and make a scene in the world of cinema and popular culture. It's significance in progressing the Star Wars saga cannot be understated, and there were plenty of things fans took in and found out first hand once they saw the film - primarily the continuing journey of Luke Skywalker, his heritage and Jedi training with Yoda, and the shocking revelation made by Darth Vader in the end.

1980 Mark Hamill and Harrison Ford at premier of Empire Strikes Back.

Everything else is pretty much history and well documented through the years, but there's nothing wrong with taking a trip back to the past and revisiting some memories - of a time when Star Wars just got BIGGER and more wilder as George Lucas delivered his middle entry in his "Original Trilogy" of films. Above is a feature with Mark Hamill and Harrison Ford - being interviewed promoting the release of the film.



Happy 40 Years, The Empire Strikes Back!
