Star Wars Episode 9: 15 Essential Rumours & Theories

14. It's Called 'Balance Of The Force'

The pattern for Disney's Star Wars films has been that the title is revealed at the end of production, used as a nice hype-builder before a trailer arrives a little while later.

That's not been the case with Episode IX, however - filming wrapped last month, and while Abrams marked the occasion with a set photo showing Daisy Ridley, Oscar Isaac, and John Boyega, there's been no word on the title. It now looks likely that the title will be revealed Endgame style, appearing during the trailer itself, but there are a number of theories as to what it'll be.

These range from the simple, such as The End or The Skywalker Saga, to ones with a few meanings, such as A New Order, but the one that's caught the most attention - and was presented more as a leak than a simple theory - is Balance of the Force. While the actual nature of the 'leak' is almost certainly fake, that's not to say the title itself is. It's a fitting choice that ties into themes surrounding the whole trilogy, is open to multiple interpretations, and just sounds cool too.
