New image of Finn and Rose from Star Wars: The Last Jedi, international synopsis teases a Dark Side turn

November 3, 2017 by Gary Collinson

Meanwhile, the folks at That Hashtag Show have uncovered a Japanese synopsis for the movie, which teases a potential Dark Side turn, not for Luke Skywalker, but rather his latest Padawan…

“The Light, the Darkness. Rey and Kylo Ren – two people who seem to move between the two. A new shocking development is hinted to await them in Star Wars: The Last Jedi…. What awaits Rey and Kylo Ren is the question of ‘The Light or the Darkness?’ as together they are tossed and moved by the powerful Force. Rey who awakens the Force in the previous film, carries a sense of being lost and unsure. Will she be taken away by the Darkness.”
