10 Fascinating Theories About Star Wars: The Last Jedi
8. Luke Skywalker Is The Bad Guy
Luke doesn't seem too happy to see Rey at the end of The Force Awakens and the glimpses of him in the trailer for The Last Jedi don't suggest a man in the jolliest frame of mind.
A darker Luke might not just be the result of too many years failing to re-establish the Jedi Order - one theory has it that Luke has already turned to the Dark Side and is the prime mover behind the evil machinations of the new trilogy.
According to this theory, Luke joined Team Sith at the end of Return of the Jedi, having failed his test on Dagobah and given into his anger when confronting the Emperor. Now he is trying to wipe out the New Republic, annihilate the legacy of the Jedi and generally be as evil as possible.
He might even be Supreme Leader Snoke, although there’s a long line of characters queuing up to be revealed as that guy.
