Rey Skywalker's future in Star Wars remains uncertain, and recent news about Star Wars' upcoming movies makes me even more nervous about what the franchise's plan is for this character. Star Wars shocked many with the news that Simon Kinberg is working on a brand-new trilogy. Details on the new movies remain limited, including whether the new trilogy will be Episodes 10-12 in the Star Wars timeline.
Unquestionably, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker was largely unpopular, with many still considering it one of Star Wars' worst movies. This came on the heels of the sequel trilogy being highly criticized and changing hands multiple times. Despite that poor reception , Rey is a character with incredible potential. For one, Rey has adopted the last name Skywalker, making her the continuation of the Skywalker legacy.
Rey Deserves To Be So Much More Than This Rey Has Just Become A Full-Fledged Jedi—We Need To See That Story The Rise of Skywalker, however controversial, saw Rey at the height of her power.

A new movie or trilogy featuring Rey as the star could focus on her character individually rather than how she connects to the various Star Wars characters who came before her.
He, too, took on the Obi-Wan role, becoming Rey's mentor but never getting to shine as a Jedi Master at the helm of a brand-new Order.
