Now that we’ve all had time to process Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, with many deeming it to be an underwhelming finale to the Sequel Trilogy, attentions are being turned to what the original vision for Episode IX was back when Colin Trevorrow was in the director’s chair instead of J.J. Abrams. This week has seen a flurry of fresh information about Trevorrow’s movie, too, as leaked plot details have surfaced online.
First of all, Episode IX would’ve gone by the title Duel of the Fates and featured significant changes to the storyline, like the absence of Emperor Palpatine. With Darth Sidious not around to hog the screentime, the film would’ve fleshed out the Knights of Ren much more than they were explored in Rise. In fact, Trevorrow planned to unmask Kylo’s henchman, revealing their appearances, names and that they had their own independent wants.
