3) Rey Versus Kylo: Round Two
After their first fight formed the big climax of The Force Awakens, Rey and Kylo Ren were always going to duke it out again in The Last Jedi and it looks like we get our first glimpse at their next tete-a-tete in the trailer.
At around 1:25, we see Rey running at someone with a determined look on her face and her lightsaber drawn. We then cut immediately to a badass-looking Ren, as he brandishes his own lightsaber at an opponent. The similar lighting and background heavily suggests these two clips are part of the same scene.
Alternatively, the editing could be misleading and Rey could be running to someone else entirely and Kylo could be drawing his lightsaber at another opponent. Luke, perhaps? If this is Rey and Kylo’s battle, though, it should be a lot of fun to see them fight again now that they’re on more equal footing in the ways of the Force.
Interestingly, you might notice that Ren has a new scar above his right eye in the shot. It’s probably not a coincidence that it’s highly reminiscent of the scar his grandfather Anakin had in the same place in Revenge of the Sith.
