According to a report by Stormtrooper Larry, (a source that had previously leaked pictures from the production set of the film) a part of the script for Star Wars: Episode VIII has leaked online. The report (picture seen below) contains a page of dialogue between Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill), Rey (Daisy Ridley) and Yoda (who has long been rumoured to make an appearance in the film). The leak describes a vision regarding the history of the Jedi Order, which goes in tandem with previous rumours that Luke exiled himself to the planet Ach-To to find an ancient Jedi temple. Be wary, possible SPOILERS ahead!
In the scene Luke tells Rey that the Jedi Council became “arrogant” and that they were hiding a “secret,” which led to their demise. The old Jedi master takes Rey’s hand and shows her a glimpse into the past. They see two children playing near a tree on an alien planet. The boy noticed that he had greater strength and intuition when he was closer to this tree. The girl noticed that the tree also made her brother increasingly angry. One day an argument breaks out between the children, and the boy kills the girl. The boy touches the tree and is “transformed,”. He kills his parents and leaves the planet. Meanwhile the girl is revealed to be alive, transformed by the tree as well, using her power to start the first Jedi Order.
The girl explains how The Force can be used for both good and evil. She tells her followers that one day she would return as either a boy or a girl, and that they should train this child. Luke tells Rey that the Jedi Order had been searching for The One (reincarnation of the original founder of the Jedi) for a millennia. When they found Anakin Skywalker and thought that he would bring balance to The Force, the Jedi were “deceived” and the Clone Wars were the result. The scene also shows Rey’s parents, and Luke is not the father. Luke tells her how she was identified as strong with The Force, and how she was supposed to begin her training, but never reached her destination for an unknown reason. In the scene Luke gives Rey a choice, and she has till sunset to make it.
Now, before you dismiss this report as false, bear in mind that it lines up with certain information. For one, a massive tree was spotted on the "Ach-To" set (picture seen below), which lines up with the description of the vision experienced by Luke and Rey. Luke also mentions that Rey has "until sunset" to make her decision. This alludes to the rumoured attack from the Knights Of Ren after dark, as described in a previous report. If this information is true, it's pretty definitive that Luke is NOT Rey's father, and that Rey is actually an incarnation of the founder of the Jedi Order. As usual, take this information with a grain of salt, but it seems to fit with what we've heard with previous leaks and set reports! Sound off below with your thoughts!
