Star Wars Episode 9: 7 More Rumours You Need To Know
7. The Knights Of Ren Will Get An Epic Fight Scene
The Knights Of Ren were one of The Force Awakens' most intriguing new elements, and their absence in The Last Jedi was a notable disappointment.
But with Episode IX being viewed as a "course-correction" for Lucasfilm (read: tons of fan service), and considering Abrams was the one who created the characters in the first place, it's highly likely that they'll make an appearance. And, if current rumours and reports are to be believed, that appearance will include a major fight scene.
A few days ago, prominent Star Wars YouTuber Mike Zeroh released a video discussing a Rey/Knights Of Ren lightsaber duel in Episode IX. He mentions that Daisy Ridley is set to film a scene over at Cardington in the first week of December, which will "require tons of wire-work". This scene will pit Ridley against six actors who have martial arts experience, a group that Zeroh thinks could be The Knights Of Ren.
Even before this video, there have been rumblings about a fight scene involving a group of six actors with weapons and martial arts training (some reports also say Kylo Ren will be in the mix). With this much smoke, there has to be a fire... right?
