Star Wars: The Last Jedi - 8 Big Questions We Have After The Trailer

8. Who Is Snoke Talking To?

The trailer opens with the ominous voice of Supreme Leader Snoke, who gives a quote that’s accompanied by several images of Kylo Ren.

Well… mostly Kylo Ren.

The quote goes:

“When I found you, I saw raw, untamed power. And beyond that… something truly special.”

Upon first watching the trailer it’s natural to assume he’s talking to Kylo - until you watch it again and realise that the last part of that quote (“something truly special”) is immediately followed by a shot of Rey powering up a lightsaber.

And, if you read the entire quote, it could easily be applied to Rey, as well as Kylo.

Granted, Snoke hasn’t met her in person yet, but he knows of her (and the trailer shows that the two will be in the same room at some point), so that covers the “found you” part, and the bit about raw power could obviously be aimed at Rey, given her recently-discovered Force abilities.

And then… “something truly special.” Rey is very clearly a special person with special power (power capable of scaring the legendary Luke Skywalker), so it wouldn’t be surprising to discover that Snoke wants her on his side.
