In THAT throne room scene, it is a rare time where Daisy Ridley’s Rey genuinely comes under threat. For a long time, it looks as if Kylo will turn on her in favour of his master, with Snoke taking great glee in lecturing the Jakku scavenger and boasting to her that soon, her beloved Resistance will be shot down from the sky while she watches on.

Yet thanks to the Last Jedi novel, we now know that Rey actually considers using Snoke for knowledge and power of her own. We learn she explores the possibility of using the Supreme Leader to discover more information about her mysterious parents and why she was raised on a junkyard at Jakku rather than somewhere more befitting for a Jedi knight.

As we know, though, she thinks better off it. And it is then left to Kylo, after the brutal murder of his master, to drop the bombshell about her parents: They were mere drunks from Jakku who left her behind.

At least, that’s the line we have for now. It would not be entirely unexpected, though, if Star Wars takes us down another different path when Episode 9 hits screens in December 2019.

Now on to what we still don't know...

Sport and Film. I love them both. And I'm extremely lucky to write about two of my biggest passions in life. Most of the time, I'm at the Daily Express newspaper writing about football, tennis and F1. But, when I'm out of there, I let my imagination run wild and pen down my thoughts on the film series' I love. WhatCulture gives me the chance to write about the movie industry - an industry I really care about. And for that, I'm extremely grateful. And hope you, if you're reading this, enjoy what I think about stuff.
