Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker
2026 January 29
Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker (2019) directed by J.J. Abrams is the ninth and final film in the Skywalker saga. The story follows Rey as she attempts to stop the First Order and discovers the truth about her ancestry: she is the granddaughter of Emperor Palpatine. Palpatine, thought dead, has been manipulating events from the shadows building an army of star destroyers on Exegol. The central theme explores how we define our legacy: are we defined by our blood or by our choices? The final battle on Exegol reunites characters from the entire saga. Ben Solo/Kylo Ren's sacrifice, redeeming himself by giving his life to save Rey, provides the complete narrative circle that began with Anakin Skywalker over 40 years ago. Carrie Fisher appears using archive footage.
