But now that won’t be possible, so it looks like The Last Jedi novel has put some teasers into how Star Wars 9 will address Leia’s death and it has to do with what many fans refer to as the “Leia Poppins” moment in the movie.
According to The Last Jedi novelization, which was written by Jason Fry with assistance from Rian Johnson, Luke hears Obi Wan telling him to, “let go.”
The Last Jedi attempted to right that wrong by having Leia hug Chewbacca at the end of the this latest sequel, as the last of the Resistance sets off for destinations unknown, with Chewbacca piloting them all in the Millennium Falcon.
The Last Jedi novelization has provided us with some insight into Snoke’s past as well as a vision of what Luke Skywalker’s life would have been like had he not chosen the Jedi path.
