Rey Skywalker (Daisy Ridley) looks distressed in her outfit from The Force Awakens. She's edited with Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor) softly smiling in the Obi-Wan Kenobi series.
One of the most important moments of Star Wars: The Force Awakens arrives when Rey Skywalker touches Anakin Skywalker's old lightsaber and experiences a Force vision that ends with the voice of Obi-Wan Kenobi speaking to her - but why is it Obi-Wan, and not Anakin himself or someone like Yoda? As the first movie in the Star Wars sequel trilogy, The Force Awakens was picked apart for theories unlike any other Star Wars project before.
Obi-Wan Is To Rey As Yoda Was To Luke The Jedi Master of her Jedi Master Close Rey hearing the voice of her eventual Jedi Master's own Jedi Master carries on a Star Wars tradition that began 35 years before The Force Awakens in The Empire Strikes Back.
2 Interestingly, this means that The Force Awakens puts a twist on this story structure from the original Star Wars trilogy by having Rey's true master be the hermit in exile that she finds in the second movie rather than the first Jedi Master who eases her into her new life as a Jedi. She hears Obi-Wan's voice before she even meets her own Jedi Master, softly pushing her in the direction of the Force's will to come across Obi-Wan's last student.
