Setting aside the still rather murky parentage of Rey, Carrie Fisher's untimely death has made Luke's presence even more necessary for Episode 9.
The latest comments from Rian Johnson are bound to kick start another feverish 24 months of anticipation for Luke's "exciting" last stand. Will he really come back as a Force Ghost? By now everybody knows that Luke peacefuly crossed over into the Force at the end of The Last Jedi but the movie had already established that this is not the end of the line.
Episode 8 hammered home the idea of Force ghosts with Yoda's perky and powerful cameo. The emphasis really is on the word "powerful" since the ancient Jedi master demonstrated just how much a dead Jedi can affect the living world in spectacular fashion.
Previous Force ghosts have hovered prettily like in The Return of the Jedi, or delivered words of wisdom like in the Clone Wars animated series. Fans are still desperate to see a proper demonstration of the oft-repeated declarations that Luke is the most powerful Jedi.
The director told Variety: Of course, this being Star Wars, Johnson also fudged his declaration, leaving room for another 24 months of speculation and theories. JJ Abrams and Chris Terrio are writing it right now.
