New Star Wars: The Last Jedi Footage - 6 Things We Just Learned

1. Luke's First Words To Rey

Or at least, we're assuming those are his first words. It would be pretty awkward for him to strike up a conversation with the heroine, only to ask her that question later.

One major plot detail that this tweet may have just put to bed is whether or not Luke is Rey's father. If he were, would he be asking a question like that?

Yes, he may only remember her as a child or teenager, but wouldn't Luke, who's incredibly strong with the force, know his daughter if she were standing right in front of him, holding a lightsaber?

We'll just have to wait until December to find out for sure.

Danny has been with WhatCulture for over ten years, and is currently Doctor Who Editor and WhoCulture Channel Manager, overseeing all of WhatCulture's Whoniverse coverage. In 2022, he took charge of WhoCulture and has grown it into the biggest Doctor Who channel on YouTube, and one of the biggest Doctor Who communities on the web full-stop. He has been writing and video editing since his early teens, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers, off the back of a burning obsession with the Matt Smith era of the show. Like many his age, he first got into Doctor Who with the 2005 revival, but has since gone back and fallen in love with the classic years too. If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order, or to give you a random factoid about the making of Gridlock, Danny is the person to ask!
