Fans of 'Star Wars: Episode 8,' the much-awaited space opera film, are always curious to hear about the upcoming plots and now some very interesting information has come out. It indicates at Kylo Ren being a double agent, who is working with the Force.
A Reddit theory from a fan has started this rumor and now it has also begun to gain steam, reports Breathe Cast. According to the hypothesis, Luke Skywalker has sent Kylo Ren to the First Order to work as a secret agent for the Resistance. As evidence, his fight with Rey is being brought to the fore and it looks like fans are confirmed that Ren held back because he knew who she is and what role she is playing in the overall plan.
Other proofs are also being given and they point to the instance when Ren hid the true location of Luke Skywalker and when he went against the option of using Starkiller to destroy the Resistance base. The second one is quite significant as it could have ended the war right there. Rey's meeting with Skywalker has also been taken into account.
She met him for the first time at the end of Episode 7 and Skywalker did not appear to be surprised at finding her and her quick learning at using the Force. It is being speculated that he already sensed her through the Force or it is true that she is his real daughter. Ren's resistance at killing Finn is also being touted to be an indicator of the former being a double agent.
Speaking of Finn, theories about his recoveries from the lightsaber battle that took place in The Force Awakens are also doing the rounds, reports Independent. As per makingstarwars.net, Finn is kept in a bubble suit to help him recover from injuries and there is a sequence in the upcoming movie where he is removed from the suit and comes out hale and hearty. Later, he embarks on his journey to find Rey, Skywalker, and R2-D2.
'Star Wars: Episode 8' is scheduled to arrive in theaters on Dec. 15, 2017.
