Rian Johnson explains why Luke Skywalker’s story had to end in Star Wars: Episode VIII – The Last Jedi.
Lucasfilm promised to bring back the original Star Wars trilogy’s characters for another adventure when Walt Disney Studios acquired them and simultaneously announced Star Wars: Episode VII (later subtitled The Force Awakens) in 2012 – and they did… to an extent.
WARNING: This article contains SPOILERS for Star Wars: The Last Jedi.
While Lucasfilm did bring back the original characters, the Star Wars sequel trilogy isn’t exactly giving fans what they expected (or perhaps wanted) all these years.
