The Future of Star Wars...a theory:
Anyone else wonder if they decided to end the saga this way because they want us to be deeply invested in whatever else could be coming down the line for Rey and Ben and the rest of our ST characters? I mean...it seems like a pretty corporate thing to do.
We have strong evidence that a different ending was filmed—changing that ending to be more “ambiguous” could have easily been a late decision made to keep possibilities for other stories open. An ending like the one we we given in TRoS keeps people talking—it leaves people wondering what could be. And when DLF announces that a new story is continuing on with our ST characters (Rey, Ben, Rose, Finn, Poe and the rest of the gang) people will be more than ready to roll.
But the Skywalker Saga is over. Where do we go from here?:
Yes, the Skywalker Saga has ended...in the sense that the nostalgic-ridden story that lives in the shadow of our OT characters has ended. LF closed the book on the Skywalker Saga and gave “traditional” OT lovers the nostalgic film they wanted to “satisfy” them at the end of their nine film storyline. Rey literally laid The Skywalker legacy to rest by burying the family sabers.
But now, our new characters that were introduced in the ST don’t have to live with the shadow of Luke, Leia, Han, and Lando looming over them—These characters can grow and change and have their own story arcs separate from the OT characters. Gone are the days of catering to the OT audience—it’s time for a new generation of stories.
Do I think our OT characters will be erased and never talked about again? Of course not! But this isn’t their story anymore. Star Wars is about a new generation now. 💜
There is so much left open for us to explore: Rey’s story arc isn’t complete—she still has to finish her heroine’s journey. Ben Solo isn’t dead. He’s somewhere in the Great Unknown—the World Between Worlds was introduced for a reason. There can be no balance without the Dyad together—Ben and arey must reunite. Finn is Force Sensitive—there is so much to explore there! And Rose, Jannah and Poe all have stories brewing, too.
I’m excited for the future. Wether these stories are explored in comics, novels, animation, Live Action TV shows, or (we can all hope) films—I am ready for any of it. I’m craving these stories. So many of us are.

Reblog if you agree.
We were a family, living in peace, love and warmth. But everything changed when conflict and despair swept through our lives. Living in Gaza means confronting ongoing conflict, struggling against poverty and the lack of basic necessities to live. Life is very difficult, and even the simplest tasks seem impossible. Yet, despite all the chaos and pain, we remained grounded by the warmth of our love and the strength of our spirits.
Even six months ago, everything changed. Our once home turned into a mess and everything we cherished. Since then, we have been lost, clinging to a world of uncertainty and despair. We left our badly damaged home with only a few things. Since then, our lives have been threatened
with every passing minute.
But now, there is no longer a reason to stay in this place full of suffering, where we are deprived of even the most basic and important rights, education, security and peace.
Our hearts hurt because of all this injustice. We were willing to endure anything to keep our family together and provide comfort and care for our father in his time of need.
With each passing day, our despair grows and our burdens grow heavier. We need your help to break the cycle of suffering, rebuild our shattered dreams, pave the way to a better future, and reunite with our family. Your support is not just a lifeline; Rather, it is a beacon of hope in our darkest moments.
Neither are you.
