10 Shocking (But Believable) Theories About Star Wars: The Last Jedi

5. Anakin Will Appear As A Force Ghost

Leaked concept art of Anakin Skywalker in Force Ghost mode was kicking about long before The Force Awakens hit cinemas, so it comes as no surprise than many are tipping Darth Vader to appear in spirit in The Last Jedi.

Anakin may already be in communication with his grandson Kylo Ren from beyond and is urging him to "finish what [he] started", or perhaps he will appear to the disillusioned Luke to advise him on his post-Jedi path.

If Hayden Christensen is on board for a Last Jedi cameo, they're keeping it under wraps, but that doesn't mean it isn't happening. Secrecy is Disney's forte, especially when it comes to the Star Wars franchise.

Rumours of a Vader cameo reignited recently when Star Wars theorist Mike Zeroh reported that Amazon had prematurely listed a replica Anakin costume from The Last Jedi before pulling the item from its stores.

This could simply have been an error on the internet retailer's part, but there does seem to be tangible evidence supporting the Anakin Force ghost theory and it would make sense in the context of the overarching story.
