Relatively speaking , hearsay and wetting have been few and far between so far forStar Wars Episode IX . Things are unquestionably much more secretive regarding this film than they were with the first two films in this trilogy . But as reported byComic Book Resources , what may be the first substantive making water has finally been unblock via the Star Wars Leaks subreddit .
The rumored news leak consist of an range containing what may allegedly be first tone at costume for give back character and new characters , as well as purpose for young creatures and droids alike . Of course , there ’s no way we ’ll ever know whether any of these Reddit rumour are dead on target until the movie ’s sacking . But that ’s not going to keep us from theorizing as to what some of these possible invention could mean for the moving picture as a whole .
Poe has a more active role
InThe Last Jedi , Poe Dameron was given a larger role than the one he ’d had inThe Force Awakens ; but when all was say and done , it was hard to find anything meaningful or enjoyable about his role as the self - interested troublemaker in the second film of the sequel trilogy . Poe ’s actions led the Resistance into more trouble than they would have been otherwise , and he rarely coiffe foot in any material conflict .
However , if these new costume are to be think , viewer will get to find " Adventure Poe , " now dressed in traditional rebel fooling attire , as well as a scarf joint , a holster belt , and what is likely a bandoleer .
Richard E. Grant’s role may not be significant…
It was exciting when Richard E. Grant ’s molding was revealed in the formal production announcement forEpisode IX.And it only became more exciting as awards season ramp up and Grant received nomination after nomination , including an elusive Academy Award nominating address for his work inCan You Ever Forgive Me ?
It would be a real ignominy , then , ifEpisode IXwere to squander Grant ’s considerable gift . Unfortunately , if the rumored designs are to be believed , this may very well be the case . Grant ’s character appear to be a rather nondescript First Order officeholder - just another one of the many that have descend and go before .
…But Dominic Monaghan’s role may be
While it ’s completely likely that Grant ’s role may wind up being not nigh as meaty as it deserves to be , something about the conception forLostveteran Dominic Monaghan ’s character seems to hint at a more important theatrical role . As an admittedly generic look " Resistance Officer , " Monaghan ’s character appear like one who could either be in the midst of the action , or behind the prospect .
Yet while Grant would be just another older British face in a sea of First Order officers , Monaghan represents a new face in the rebuild Resistance , a trenchant and familiar human face to fans of the scientific discipline fiction musical genre and JJ Abrams ' work .
BB-8 has a new little buddy
Even ifEpisode IXwinds up having a much more serious flavor as it build up toward the complete and net flood tide of the Skywalker Saga , there ’s no traverse that there will be a fairish amount of levity and humor along the way , especially with Abrams at the helm . One such source of humor that will likely be mined oftentimes admit a raw , bizarrely lovely minuscule droid .
Looking like a conoid with antennas that was strapped to a unicycle , the droid is distinguish as " new droid that will bother BB-8 " in the bruit designs . Whatever the case winds up being here , we ca n’t wait to see these two interact .
Admiral Ackbar’s legacy lives on
One of the most startling loss inThe Last Jedi- at least for unfeignedly devoted fan of the franchise - occur in the form of the blink and you ’d drop it demise of the fabled Rebel Alliance and Resistance hero , Admiral Ackbar . The Mon Calamari leader was beloved for his over the top diction and passionate commitment to the grounds - and , countenance ’s be honest , for his total existence as meme gold .
But if the supposed design forEpisode IXare real , it looks like Ackbar ’s legacy wo n’t be forgotten any clip before long . A new extremity of the Resistance seems to come from Ackbar ’s Mon Cala race , ensuring that his front will always be feel .
The Resistance is looking a little rough for wear
When we last leave the Resistance at the end ofThe Last Jedi , they were barely make out to hold it all together . With their numbers as lowly as they may very well ever have been , and no one regress their calls for help , thing looked dire for our beloved hero . But they still had hope , as Leia assured a distressed Rey that they had all that they need the right way there .
search at the leak possible designs forEpisode IX , however , shows that thing are still pretty gravelly for these Resistance champion . Most Resistance aim seem as though they ’re fighting in the trenches , and possibly in desert type planet , ground on the sandy and dusty hue of their garb and the oceanic abyss warfare - similar helmet .
Another lavish world may be explored
For better or big , whatever your take on that plot line may have been , much ofThe Last Jedifollowed Finn and Rose as they journeyed to Canto Bight , a cassino planet filled with the wealthiest and most treacherous individuals in the Galax urceolata . Regardless of whether the story help any true overarching use in the film , Canto Bight did introduce some visually sensational creature and costumes .
The other rumoredEpisode IXdesigns seem to suggest at some like lavish risky venture taking place . Multiple figure are see clothe in various bright colors , silken blues and golds and reds with ornate jewelry . We do n’t know much else about what these costume mean , or who ’d be wearing them . But it ’s clear that there ’s some wealth at play here again .
Lando’s still the same old Lando
Early rumors about the overall story ofEpisode IXhave so far suggested that Billy Dee Williams ' lovable scoundrel Lando Calrissian may have a much smaller function than what fans may have been hoping for . Realistically , this makes sense , given Williams is 81 years one-time and may not be up to handling a prolonged adventure , even if he is in pretty swell configuration .
So , how does the film in effect and efficiently communicate Lando ’s character and personality ? By having him appear in an turnout entirely redolent of one worn by a young Lando as played by Donald Glover inSolo : A Star Wars Story . With a signature bleak cloak and a undimmed yellow shirt to equalize , Lando is just as jaunty and striking as ever . We ’d accept nothing less .
Rey’s attempting to embody the Light
In the final entry of the prequel trilogy and original trilogy , our protagonists - Anakin Skywalker and Luke Skywalker , respectively - dress themselves altogether in black as they confront the Dark Side . If these rumour paradigm are to be believed , however , it seems like Rey will be going an alone different way - at least to start the cinema .
The raw face for Rey ’s reference finds her wearing clothes standardized to the rig she wore in her days in the Jakku desert , while also more intimately resemble traditional Jedi robes . Most notable of all is the pristine white colour of these garment , suggesting perhaps a performative nature of her wardrobe . By embodying the Light , she ’ll never have to confront the murky grey in between .
Kylo Ren’s struggles are far from over
WhenThe Last Jediended , Kylo Ren find himself in a position that is n’t exactly an enviable one . Having just dispatched permanently of Supreme Leader Snoke , he now take on the role of Supreme Leader himself , but also teach that he may have been more alone in the universe than he had to begin with believed . With his bond with Rey presently break , and all of his mentors now out of the picture , it makes sense that Kylo would presently feel even more bewildered than we ’ve seen him so far .
Which makes the rumored designs for his eccentric - admit a paying back of the cowling , and a mask barely apply together with a bright red substance - make consummate sensory faculty . If Rey is performing the call to the Light through her attire , then Kylo is going all in on looking the part of the Dark side - even if the engagement that inhabit inside of him call down on still .
