New 'Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker' trailer teases the possibility of 'Dark Rey'

The new trailer for Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker raises an important question. Has Rey joined the Dark Side? Well, this sizzle reel of a trailer seems to suggest just that. But that could also be seen as perhaps a vision or a dream. Lucasfilm unveiled at Disney's D23 Expo over the weekend this new exclusive trailer for the last film of the latest Star Wars trilogy. Aside from showing a lot of footage from the past eight Star Wars films, it teases us with a look at the upcoming movie, including our heroes ending up on a desert locale, a look at the new character Jannah, a C3PO with red eyes, and Rey and Kylo Ren still engaged in an epic fight. We won't find out whether Dark Rey is a thing or not until The Rise of Skywalker hits theatres in December this year.
