10 Burning Questions Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker Left Us With

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is finally here, bringing with it the end of not only the Sequel Trilogy but also the Skywalker saga as a whole. We knew going in that there was a lot the movie had to wrap up, then, so it’s maybe not too surprising that it doesn’t manage to address all the questions we’re yearning to know the answer to.

So, Finn Is Force-Sensitive?

Let’s stick with Finn for a moment. While The Rise of Skywalker doesn’t go so far as to confirm who he has romantic feelings for, it does drop the major revelation that Finn is Force-sensitive. Well, kinda.

First of all, when he bonds with Jannah over their shared experience as redeemed stormtroopers, he points out to her that he believes it was the Force that inspired them to reform, making clear that he’s now a complete convert to the old Jedi religion. An even bigger piece of evidence comes later though, when Finn is heavily hinted to sense Rey’s (temporary) death in the climax.

Finn has been shown to be pretty nifty with a lightsaber before, so his being Force-sensitive doesn’t come entirely out of left-field. But it is still a bit of a shock, and something we wish had been explored a little more in the movie.

Also, if Finn is Force-sensitive, does that mean Jannah and her fellow deserted stormtroopers are, too? She did have the same “feeling” as Finn when she reformed, after all.
