Obi-Wan Was Rey's Original Father in the Sequels And during a 2020 interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Ridley was asked if she knew about Rey's parentage from the beginning. She replied, "No.
In 'Star Wars,' Rey Was Originally Meant to be a Kenobi
In an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Daisy Ridley revealed that a connection between Rey and Obi-Wan was one of the initial ideas around her character's creation. When asked if she was aware of Rey's connection to Palpatine, Ridley noted that, "No.
2019's 'Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker' revealed Rey to be the granddaughter of Emperor Palpatine. Star Wars sequel trilogy actress Daisy Ridley has shared her thoughts on Rey's family tree.
In the Star Wars film franchise, Obi-Wan does not have a known brother. However, he almost did. In the original Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi screenplay, Obi-Wan did have a brother, and it was none other than Owen Lars (Joel Edgerton)—Luke Skywalker's step-uncle and Anakin's step-brother.
Powerfully Force-sensitive, Rey trains to be a Jedi under siblings Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa, and faces adversaries such as Kylo Ren, Supreme Leader Snoke and the resurrected Emperor Palpatine—who is revealed to be her grandfather in The Rise of Skywalker.
And in The Rise of Skywalker we finally learn that Rey is actually the granddaughter of Palpatine. Her parents—one of which is the child of Palpatine—abandoned her on Jakku to keep her safe from her grandfather who was aware of her power.
In addition to rejecting Sidious, Dathan married a woman named Miramir, whom he fell in love with. Together, they conceived a child, their daughter Rey, who was born in 15 ABY. Although he renounced the Sith Eternal and his donor, the Palpatine bloodline would prosper through him, just as Sidious predicted.
Early life. A Force-sensitive human female, Reva Sevander was once a Jedi who lived at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant as a youngling. During her time at the temple, she was trained by Grand Master Yoda.
And answers were finally given by Rey's actor, Daisy Ridley, who admitted that Obi-Wan was originally Rey's father. With the release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, it was clear the identity of Rey's parents was to be a major part of her story.
Reva Sevander, better known as the Third Sister, is the central antagonist of the 2022 Disney+ Star Wars miniseries Obi-Wan Kenobi. She was a Jedi youngling who survived Order 66 and fell to the dark side of the Force, joining the Galactic Empire by becoming part of the Inquisitorius.
She does not have a baby bump, her hand never goes to her stomach to indicate she's carrying a child, and there wasn't exactly any time for her to have conceived a child with anyone in the course of the film, including Kylo Ren/Ben Solo.
Rey was born on Hyperkarn in 15 ABY during the rise of the New Republic. Her father, Dathan, was a bioengineered Strand-Cast cloned from the genetic template of Darth Sidious, the Sith Lord who ruled the Galactic Empire as Emperor Palpatine.
A crystal embodies the Jedi as the heart of the lightsaber, and pure kyber has no color until it's bonded to the Force user. This process likely resulted in Rey Skywalker's lightsaber being yellow.
As Kylo Ren himself says in The Rise of Skywalker, he and Rey are bonded not just by their familial legacies (Ren as the grandson of Darth Vader and Rey as the granddaughter of Emperor Palpatine) but by their unique connection in the Force.
In the story, we learn that Obi-Wan took on the name Ben because it's a nickname given to him by an old flame, the Duchess Satine Kryze. He takes on the name because it still has emotional resonance for him.
But Rey responded that she was all of the Jedi. Aided by the spirits of the Jedi who had come before her, she used both Luke and Leia's lightsabers to deflect Sidious's Force energies back at him, destroying the Sith Lord once and for all.
Why does Obi-Wan Kenobi age like that? Because he's not real, and is a fictional character played by different people. You see, Obi-Wan Kenobi is played by Alec Guinness in the original trilogy. Guinness was 62 when he filmed A New Hope, and he died in 2000.
While the Skywalker bloodline is technically gone, Rey honors her fallen mentors, Luke and Leia, by adopting their family name. When asked who she is by the old woman on Tatooine, the former Palpatine declares herself Rey Skywalker, and she becomes a new part of the family.
The daughter of Duke Adonai Kryze, Satine was a member of Clan Kryze, a clan aligned with the Kalevala-based House Kryze, at one point considered the Mandalorian royal family. Satine also had a sister, Bo-Katan, who she was close with when she was younger.
Why Does Reva Hate Obi-Wan So Much? (SOLVED) The series shows us us that Reva is unusually fanatical. She's consumed by her single-minded quest to hunt down Obi-Wan Kenobi, and she's not afraid of cheating, lying and backstabbing her fellow Inquisitors along the way.
Mara Jade Skywalker is a fictional character in the Star Wars franchise. She appears in the now non-canon Legends series as the wife of Luke Skywalker and mother of Ben Skywalker.
The Third Sister was at the Jedi Temple during Order 66. She either saw Anakin kill her fellow Jedi or saw the recording of his crimes. That's why she has such hatred for Obi-Wan. She was a Padawan who escaped Order 66.
Upbringing. Zayne showed talent in the Force, as many expected, being Rey's son, but the boy was never trained by his mother. Instead, Rey kept her life as a Jedi Master and as a mother separate from her son, reasons being unknown to anyone for close to twenty years.
By the end of The Rise of Skywalker, Rey had become the last known Jedi of the Skywalker Saga. With all that being said, Rey was not left as the last remaining Force-sensitive character.
After years of speculation, Star Wars: The Last Jedi revealed that Rey (Daisy Ridley), the main character of the new trilogy, is not the child of Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill). In fact, she's the child of “nobody” — per Rey's own words.
