Star Wars: 10 Characters Who Could Be The Last Jedi

Despite being only ten months away, we still know practically nothing about Episode VIII. Except, the title of the movie, that is, which knocked the internet off kilter when it was revealed the other week. Just what can we glean about the film from the moniker Star Wars: The Last Jedi, though?

3) Kylo And The Knights Of Ren

One of the big plot points that The Force Awakens left dangling was the mystery about the Knights of Ren. By piecing together what we know about Ben Solo’s turn to the dark side, we can assume that he led the Knights of Ren to slaughter Luke’s Jedi academy. But is that really what happened?

One theory goes that the Knights of Ren are not actually the murderers of Luke’s Jedi students but actually are those same students. Not only did Snoke entice Ben Solo, Luke’s nephew, to the Dark Side, but he also got to the entire school and turned them against their Jedi master. This would certainly explain why Luke is so crushed by what happened, if every single one of his students went evil. Also, in this way the Knights would be the last of the Jedi – only corrupted and turned away from the light.

It definitely feels like there’s a big reveal about the Knights of Ren to come, and this tragic twist would definitely live up to the level of mystery surrounding them at the moment.
