After nine movies, the story of the Skywalker family is coming to an end. There's an obvious sadness when things end, but it is the right time for it to do so and for Star Wars to branch out into new stories, but how do you end a saga going back over 40 years in a satisfactory manner?

Luke is already dead, but will be there again; Leia is still alive, but limited by how much footage exists, and then there's Ben Solo, who is of the Skywalker line, who may well be killed off too.

It needs a powerful ending if it's finishing off this whole arc, and it's a huge ask of J.J. Abrams and Chris Terrio. Here's hoping they're up to the task.
