RUMOR Another report of what Colin Trevorrow's IX would have been like.

Anakin Skywalker fell to the darkside because of his hidden relationship with Padme. He was obsessed with saving her and would do anything in his power to prevent her death.

In the Clone Wars Ob1 said he would have left the order to be with Duchess Satine. SO Jedi aren’t suppose to fall in love or be committed to a relationship. They are devoted to the Jedi Order, if Ob1 wanted to be with Satine he would have left his Jedi path, unlike Anakin.

Disney Star wars has Rey hooking up with Kylo, Reylo, and now Trevorrow’s rumored script has Poe chasing after Rey.

I remember reading I, Jedi (Legends) by Michael A. Stackpole where a force sensitive X-Wing pilot trains at Luke Skywalker’s Jedi Academy because of his Jedi heritage and is married to a woman named Mirax. Disney did away with Legends I wonder if this is one of the many reason. I still read my old Star Wars legends books, but I wonder do the people creating Star Wars today beside Filoni and Favreau really understand Star Wars and the lore?

 

Colin never submitted a finalized script because the writing process was still ongoing when Carrie died, at which point everything that he and Derek Connolly had been working on was completely discarded, and he was never able to come up with a replacement story.

 

Colin Trevorrow's 'Star Wars' Episode IX' Was Called 'Duel Of The Fates' & It’s Real

In addition to the AV Club and ThePlaylist.net, the founder of ScreenJunkies has said it is real and he’s seen it.

 

Andy Signore: "Rob [Burnett] had access to the same script that I did... It's absolutely real." (January 14, 2019)

 

I'm not buying this "leak". A lot of it reads like fan fiction, and contradicts already established facts within canon.
For example:

• There is supposedly a Sith Lord thousands of years old, who is still around, and trained Palpatine. Apparently he is the master of the order. Completely contradicts the Rule of Two.
• Mortis factors into the plot, it's turned into some kind of a dreamworld. Contradicts both TCW and Rebels.
• Palpatine created Anakin. I don't know how many times throughout the past few years, this theory has been debunked by the story group. It's left ambiguous on purpose. Not to mention, the Skywalker bloodline is made a product of the dark side, whilst Rey - some Maclunkey nobody is made to be the "real Anakin".

If this truly is a legitimate leak, thank god we never got this version.

 

Again, it comes down to two confirmed facts, which I've already mentioned:
1) Everything that Colin and Derek were working on was discarded in January 2017
2) Colin was fired in September 2017 because he couldn't produce a story to replace what had been discarded, even after Lucasfilm hired Jack Thorne to help him

 

It would've been nice to have seen Mortis in live-action.

 

It seems like every movie does that, and they simply change canon around to fit the new movie TBH.

Wasn't it kind of a dream world already? After the Main Trio went to it in TCW, didn't it disappear? And I honestly can't remember anything about it in Rebels. Can you refresh my memory (because I really can't and need to know lol)

A-STORMING-MEN. It's really annoying when people say Palpatine created Anakin. Although Charles Soule's fantastic run on Dark Vader didn't help either...

Well...TROS did something with Anakin and Rey "bringing balance" like he did...so...sigh...

 

Thanks for the link! And I very much agree with Signore's take that a lot of the "JJ cut" and other spin is his crew doing stuff to distance his name from the movie.

What's interesting about this is that Terrio and Abrams have been saying that they more or less started from scratch - Terrio even saying that at the time he joined, there were several elements of TROS already in place from JJ/Kennedy. But this script throws a bit of a wrench into their narrative (since Signore has jumped in, I'm proceeding on the assumption that this script is totally on the level). It's clear that there are actually quite a few ideas of Trevorrow's that made it in to TROS in some way.

 

I feel like somewhere between Colin's script and JJ's, there was the potential for a GREAT film. Nevertheless, we wound up with a solid one and thankfully, one that is probably better overall than what we were going to get.

 

Adam Chitwood: "while fans were curious as to the veracity of the whole thing, sources familiar with Trevorrow’s script confirm to Collider that the plot details revealed inBurnett’s video line up with what was in that particular draft." (January 14, 2020)

Chris Evangelista: "But /Film can confirm that this leak, and all of the details that come with it, are indeed legit." (January 15, 2020)

 

Filoni said he and Lucas had decided to keep whether Mortis and its gods really existed ambiguous. That's why the main trio never remember anything, and it seems like a dream. Of course Filoni retconned this later, by making them real in Rebels with the World between Worlds and all.

 

Ah I see! Thanks for the info!!

 

As usual, wrong again.

MSW has seen a post-Carrie death script.

You should really at least add “I think...” or “I’m pretty sure...” prior to posting stuff, because you are proven wrong time and again.

In other words, stop posting like you are an authority on this stuff.

You’ve been wrong about canon multiple times.

Wrong about there being an outline/plan for the trilogy.

Wrong about leaks.

And now wrong about this.

“I could be wrong, but I think ....” not only helps you look less silly, but it’s also more polite.

 

@Unseen In trying to attack me, you're only really digging a hole for yourself by calling Kathleen Kennedy, Matt Martin, and Pablo Hidalgo - all of whom have stated that Colin's Episode 9 plans were thrown out after Carrie died - liars.

 

@Unseen @DigificWriter calm down a bit and stop dealing in absolutes please.

 

They didn't say Trevorrow's plans were discarded the exact day Carrie Fisher died, they said they were discarded after she died.
Colin Trevorrow was also fired after Carrie Fisher died.
After is very broad way to measure time.
