Excitement swells asStar Wars : The Rise of Skywalker ’s December release date nears . Fans may have been unhappy with Rian Johnson ’s controversialThe Last Jedibut that wo n’t contain them seeing the concluding pleasure trip of a franchise that has become one of the most iconic in movie story over its 42 - years - and - count land tenure .
Buzz surrounds the character of Kylo Ren . He ’s now Supreme Leader , having murdered Snoke , and we ’ve got glance of him in the preview footage so far . So , pouring over that , we now take a tone at 10 things we fuck about Ben Solo ’s involvement in ninthStar Warsfilm .
He’s Confident
Kylo Ren has certainly come a long way of life sinceThe Force Awakens . In that moving-picture show , and its sequel , he do across as a youngster stuck in the carrefour , one bullied by his master Supreme Leader Snoke and looked down on by the offensive General Hux as he battles the conflict within himself .
But he appear to have his prance and assurance back - despite being humiliate by Luke Skywalker on Crait at the end ofThe Last Jedi . He walks with a herculean , purposeful prance that see far less angsty than we ’ve seen before . And that means this Kylo Ren means line .
He’ll Destroy Darth Vader’s Mask
Kylo Ren has grown up idolise Darth Vader , despite him belike knowing that his grandfather was redeemed shortly before his death inReturn of the Jedi . In the first flick of the subsequence trilogy he ’s hear talking to Vader ’s charred mask , which had been salvaged from the satellite of Endor . And given how Snoke mocked him over wanting to be like his granddad , it would be no understatement to say he ’s besotted by Anakin Skywalker .
But footage from the third preview appears to show him destroying it during a fiery face-off with Rey . It looks as if he ’s doing it deliberately , but some have suggested the demolition of the object merely to be an accident . Either way , Kylo is in spades at least part responsible for for it being reduced to mere pieces .
He Still Wants Rey
Kylo Ren has never wanted to really harm Rey . When he took her prisoner inThe Force Awakenshe treated her comparatively well , have off his mask and change pleasantries before then bid to teach her . InThe Last Jedihe actually extends his arm in promise of persuading her to unite the dark side - but she turn him down .
He ’s persistent , however , we ’ll give him that . He articulate " I do " when Rey verbalise about nobody know her , depict that he ’s not pass on up his aim of an alliance being struck . Whether that end up happening in the movie , however , is something only sentence will tell .
He Embarks On A Personal Mission
Much of the promotional , and merchandising , marketing forThe Rise of Skywalkershows Kylo Ren surrounded , whether it be by normal stormtroopers or the new , red , shining Sith Troopers who will be make an coming into court in the motion picture . But in the D23 laggard , it shows him landing on a satellite by himself , igniting his cherry lightsaber as he walks towards something we ca n’t see .
This suggest that Kylo Ren will try on to do some things himself , despite being Supreme Leader and have got various weapon and soldier at his disposal . We do n’t know just what the mission is but some have evoke the scene register him landing to oppose Emperor Palpatine alongside Rey . Again , it ’s something we ’ll have to hold back to find out .
He’ll Get His Mask Fixed
When we first met Kylo Ren inThe Force Awakens , he was also jade a mask . He pass most of the movie with it on , only take it off when he talks to Rey on Starkiller Base . InThe Last Jedi , he ’s break it again . However , he destruct it in a fit of fury when he ’s mocked by Supreme Leader Snoke , who cruelly labels him a " small fry in a mask " during an acute scene in his stool room .
We thought we ’d encounter the last of the object , but the firstRise of Skywalkertrailer , as well as other promotional fabric , has shown he gets it fix . Not only that , but it has a snazzy reddened pattern from whereStar Warssuperglue holds it in spot . Will it last a whole motion picture this time ?
He’ll Fight On The Frontline
When it comes to Kylo Ren fighting , he ’s mostly been alone . He agitate Rey on Starkiller Base with very little service and select to snub the offering of other soldier when he goes principal to head with Luke Skywalker on Crait duringThe Last Jedi .
But the first poke for the flick indicate him making his way through a forest with stormtroopers all heading in the same steering . This appears to show he ’ll be active on the frontline , despite have got the most - crucial rank in the entire First Order . And we also took something off from that scene as well …
He’ll Fight The Knights Of Ren
in the end , nearly four old age on from their first appearing in aStar Warsmovie , we ’ll get to see what the mysterious Knights of Ren are all about . We know that Kylo Ren is their master , and they all dress a mediaeval black with weapons on their self-command , but that ’s about it .
Yet in the same scene where Kylo makes his way through a wood with stormtroopers all around him , he also look to bodyslam one of the Knights of Ren to the floor . They for certain do n’t look like any Resistance penis we ’ve met so far , so why would he do it ? Well , some rumors have suggested he ’ll turn against them once they begin to side with Palpatine . It appears there can only be one nefarious titan inStar Wars .
He’ll Get Bruised Up Along The Way
Kylo Ren has taken two big blows during his time in theStar Warsfranchise so far . The first is a forcible one , when Rey slice his look up middling speculative after their showdown on Starkiller Base inThe Force Awakens . And a second is genial , when Luke Skywalker humiliates him on the planet on Crait by force - jut himself to the planet .
And it appears as though Ben Solo will suffer more blows , this time decidedly physical , during the movie . There ’s a brief second in the third and final trailer where he brook while lightning flashes across the sky , by all odds await a tad less - composed than before . It could be the firing yet the outline of a bruise can also be spot on his features as well .
He Will Fight Rey Again
A rather obvious pick from the trailer , but one that still sets our pulses racing . Kylo Ren and Rey are intend for another encounter with all three pieces of footage showing them locking lightsabers not just on the remains of the second Death Star , but also in what is likely the baddie ’s personal bedroom .
It ’s been brewing , after all . But the inquiry is will they stay on oppose slope ? It ’s long been suggest that Kylo will eventually be redeemed , taking the same path his grandfather Darth Vader had chosen all those years ago . But then there ’s that " Dark Rey " shot . It ’s not wholly out of the question that both will become glum side drug user , especially with the vicious Palpatine now back in the fold .
He Won’t Go With Rey To Face Palpatine
The very last shot of the third and final trailershows Rey facing Palpatine , whose nerve is concealed by a goon . However , intriguingly , she goes alone . It definitely calculate early on into them meeting each other for the first clip due to the fact she walks away in shock at see his face . fall in how ugly he is , who would n’t right ?
And this suggests that Kylo Ren wo n’t be there for the scratch line of their interactions . Rumours have gage this up , claiming he ’ll only enter the disturbance after dispatching The Knights of Ren using Anakin ’s old lightsaber first . While we love the idea of Kylo and Rey team up up against Palpatine , we ’re also excited by the prospect of Ben Solo do as a hoagie .
