Recently a movie everyone has been waiting for finally hit theaters after 10 years. This is the first live-action film in the franchise since “Revenge of the Sith” was released in 2005. “The Force Awakens” has hauled in $770 million since its December 14 release, in Los Angeles. It later premiered all over the world December 17. Producers plan on continuing the series with two sequels, Episode VIII and Episode IX are scheduled for release on May 26, 2017 and another in 2019.

With the exciting event of the famous Han Solo returning, and then being killed by his only son viewers all over the world are excited to see what happens next.

“I predict Rey is Luke Skywalker’s daughter,” said Matthew Souza

Many people including myself believe this theory because of the facts. Rey, the new and exciting character brought to Star Wars is taken to the lightsaber, not just any particular one, but Luke’s. Rey also receives the force and a very powerful one I’d say. Although there are other theories that include Luke Skywalker becoming a Sith, if this prediction is true the whole galaxy could be in trouble.

Star Wars doesn’t only bring in money but it brings in lots of interested fans. Each year Star Wars grows, and it will continue to grow especially with the next movies coming out in 2017 and 2019. Viewers couldn’t wait for this movie but can they wait for the next one?
