I read this leak/speculation on Bounding into Comics but considering it is Disney Star Wars I can totally see this happening. The working title is also New Jedi Order which leads me to believe it will be giving Rey what Luke's story was in the EU. I love how they didn't want to use it but feel the need to bastardize it. Like that Ahsoka series looks like an Heir to the Empire bastardization.
What would really crack me up would be to see Rey being a grumpy hermit on an island who has given up, and then wait for the critics to call it brilliant and subversive.
Do you know what really got me? It was the solo film, there's this absolutely epic war scene and it's like it's a completely different version of Star Wars compared to the crap they've been pulling.

Then it all goes downhill of course into SJW tropes. The Mandalorian was the same initially until the woke mob got to it and cancelled Gina Carano. So much potential just thrown out the fucking window for virtue signal points. It's possible and even dare I post easy to make good sci-fi these days with the software and tech available you just need somebody who isn't woke and has the balls to stay that way.
Oh yeah it's REALLY easy to make a good sci fi, the 'fantasy tech' is no longer an issue to come up with do to it being explored enough, what you need the focus to be on story and character development.
There's a reason Star Wars, Star Trek are falling down the tubes yet Gundam is so strong because they have a sci fi setting but focus on character development and political intrigue.
Sorry, I should be clear, I wasn't talking about the story wise tech but the actual tech you use to make all of this, there are Blender fan films that have better quality going for them than what the SJWs pump out from Hollywood.
Ah on that front too, I mean I sometimes get once in a few months a video from Kane Pixels and he just humiliates Hollywood in comparison and he's just a teenager.
