STAR WARS EPISODE IX: Possible New Details About The Knights Of Ren And The Movie's Villain - SPOILERS
A very interesting new Star Wars Episode IX rumour has surfaced today which claims to reveal an even bigger threat than the First Order and plans for the Knights of Ren. Hit the jump for further details...
While speculation continues to run rampant that the Star Wars Episode IX's title will be revealed during Disney's earnings call this afternoon, a new rumour from the usually reliable Making Star Wars has generated a lot of excitement online.
Apparently, Kylo Ren will find his role as Supreme Leader under threat when a mysterious force from a new dimension called "The Beyond" emerges to not only destroy his Empire but the entire Galaxy. Could whatever that might be result in the Resistance being forced to team up with their enemies to finally bring peace to the Galaxy?
We'll have to wait and see, but it's said that this mysterious realm contains an evil even more deadly than the Sith, and the site also adds that the Knights of Ren return from "The Beyond" in this movie. What's not clear is whether they were sent there by Kylo to investigate many years beforehand, or if something else led them there.
There are even rumblings that we could see Sith powered Stormtroopers, so it seems director J.J. Abrams is pulling out all of the stops when it comes to finishing the Skywalker Saga.
This is just a rumour for now, but it's definitely food for though. What do you guys make of these details? As always, share your thoughts in the comments section down below.
