"The Last Jedi" is right around the corner and fans are extremely excited for the film which may possibly be the best movie of the year. There are many books and games that have been released leading up to this movie. Here's five things to keep an eye out for.
1. Iden and Del Meeko
Iden and Del Meeko are two of the most likely candidates to be the parents of Rey. It makes sense since Iden, as of completion of the "Battlefront II" story mode, is on the run from The First Order after she betrayed the Old Empire 30 years prior. Kylo Ren and Agent Hask are trying to track down Iden, as seen in the ending of the game. Kylo is trying to draw her out of hiding and what way to draw someone out of hiding? Her Daughter, who is most likely Rey, which explains why Kylo has an obsession over her.
One of the Lucasfilm story group members said that if you want to go into "The Last Jedi" blind, do not play the "Project: Resurrection" story mode expansion. This leads me to believe that Iden will be in "The Last Jedi" in some way, shape, or form.
2. The Force Compass
The Force Compass is something that we see in "Battlefront II," and it is believed this is how Luke found the Jedi Temple where he is located in "The Force Awakens." As of now, this is the only time we have seen the compass, but it is speculated that we will see it in "The Last Jedi."
3. Rey and Kylo Ren team up?
One of the biggest predictions for this film is that will we see Rey and Kylo Ren team up to take out Supreme Leader Snoke. It is something that has been theorized since the last trailer came out, and I think it will be very interesting to see. Personally, I hope that she turns to the Dark Side and Kylo trains her or becomes a Jedi again. Either way, it would be interesting to see Kylo and Rey team up to fight Snoke.
4. Leia
Leia is a character that we will definitely be saying goodbye to in "The Last Jedi," due to Carrie Fisher's passing earlier this year. According to Rian Johnson, Leia's send off will leave fans feeling satisfied and happy. I am not looking forward to this moment since Leia, Luke, Vader, and Han were my childhood heroes. We have already lost Han and Vader and it also will be her last performance.
5. DJ
Who is this guy? Is he Boba Fett? Is he a Sith Lord or a Dark Side user? No one knows who this guy is and fans are very excited to find out who he is. Nothing is known about him besides the fact that he "plays both sides." I for one am very excited to see who this character is.
