12 Possible Meanings Of Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker Title

6. No, There Is Another

Rise Of The Skywalker
Lucasfilm

Perhaps though all these theories so far are a bit too easy. A bit too, not necessarily on the surface predictable, but certainly are when you analyse just a little. Luke, Leia, Kylo, these are all Skywalker's we know of, and let's face it Rey is just Skywalker adjacent.

But what if Yoda's earlier referenced words of another ring true here; what if the Skywalker lineage has another, unknown member. Wishful thinking immediately wanders to Mara-Jade, stretching on further to a child of her and Luke. But it could even be someone we have never heard of, in legends or canon.

Word is quiet on Matt Smith's role in The Rise Of Skywalker for example, although I believe he will play a role relating to Rey's character. Also, what about Keri Russel? Could she fill the role of Mara-Jade or the pairs daughter?

There are many an opportunity to introduced a not already known Skywalker, whether or not fans accept them is up to how, why, when and where they are introduced throughout the movie. Another Skywalker hero could give great foil to our already great heroes and villains.
