With almost four months left untilStar Wars: The Last Jedihits theaters, fans have been trying to find out anything they can about this highly-anticipated adventure, but don’t expect much more to be revealed between now and then. We already have seen oneStar Wars 8 trailer, revealed exactly four months earlier atStar WarsCelebration, but today we have some hilarious fake plot spoilers, courtesy of new star Laura Dern, who plays Amilyn Holdo, an important Resistance officer in the new sequel. Since she can’t reveal any official details, she decided to have some fun and reveal some fake spoilers that will most definitely not be in the movie, including Luke Skywalker’s first words to Rey.
“It opens on Rey holding out Luke’s old lightsaber out to him. After a long pause, Luke goes, ‘Nah, I’m good.'”
While the first thing Luke Skywalker says to Rey is most certainly not, “Nah I’m good,” it has been confirmed that the movie starts directly after the final scene ofStar Wars: The Force Awakens, withLuke and Reyon the hidden planet of Ahch-To. Laura Dern made these fake spoiler revelations on the latest episode ofEntertainment Weekly: The Show, where she added that the opening crawl at the beginning of the movie, is made up entirely of emojis, which, if true, would certainly enrageStar Warsfans around the world. Another fake spoiler she revealed is that all of the X-Wing ships will be changed to NC-17-Wing ships, while dropping another fake surprise about the lineage of Kylo Ren. Here’s what she had to say below.
“You find out that not only isKylo Renthe son of Han Solo, he’s also the cousin of Ren fromRen & Stimpy.”
Laura Dernalso reveals that Mario Batali makes a cameo in the movie, hosting a morning cooking show for Wookies calledThe Chewbacca, a reference to his ABC show called justThe Chew. While none of these details are true, obviously, they are quite humorous, although with fans waiting with bated breath for any morsel of information regarding this long-awaitedStar Warsmovie, it may just make fans more hungry for any sort of true details, or new footage. LucasFilm hasn’t revealed when the new trailer will be revealed but hopefully that announcement will come sooner rather than later.
A report surfaced last week that claims a newStar Wars kids bookspoils the opening scenes forStar Wars: The Last Jedi, while also explicitly revealing that Luke Skywalker is in fact “The Last Jedi.” Still, it has been confirmed that there will be a level of “training” involved with Luke and Rey, although it remains to be seen how close this will follow the Jedi training Luke Skywalker himself underwent with Yoda in the 1980 sequelStar Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. Many have taken issue withThe Force Awakens, since there are plot elements that are quite similar toA New Hope, and several rumors have claimed there are similarities betweenEmpire Strikes BackandThe Last Jedi.
There isn’t much known about Laura Dern’s character inStar Wars: The Last Jediother than that she’s an important Resistance officer, although it isn’t clear if this character has any connections to the characters fromThe Force Awakens. As we continue the countdown towardsThe Last Jedi, it remains to be seen when more details and/or footage will be released to the public, but that day certainly can’t come soon enough, for most fans.
