This 'Star Wars' Theory About Rey's Real Parents Would Make For A Much More Satisfying Reveal

This 'Star Wars' Theory About Rey's Real Parents Would Make For A Much More Satisfying Reveal
© 2017 Lucasfilm Ltd

The most recent Star Wars installment left viewers with a lot of questions, most notably about Rey's parents. This theory answers them all.


Star Wars: The Last Jedi gave fans a lot to anticipate for Star Wars: Episode IX.


How will they incorporate footage of the late and beloved Carrie Fisher? Is Captain Phasma dead? Will Luke show up again?


But perhaps the most pressing question is: Did Kylo Ren tell the truth about Rey's parents?


Film Threat thinks they know. Check out their mind-blowing theory.





To recap, if this theory were true, Rey is the daughter of Han Solo and Qi'ra (played by Emilia Clarke). As we know, Kylo Ren's parents are Han and Leia. This would mean that Rey and Kylo Ren are half siblings. Sound familiar? Yep, that echoes the famous reveal in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi when Luke and Leia realize that they're twins.



Furthermore, Leia is on the Light Side whereas the child she bore is on the Dark Side. Qi'ra is on the Dark Side, but the child she bore (theoretically) is on the Light Side.

People are all about it.













But not everyone is buying it.















I guess we'll have to wait until next December to really know.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
