History was made on December 17th, 2015 when the first live-action Star Wars movie in eleven years, The Force Awakens, was released into theaters. This was something that many Star Wars fans never thought would happen. Not only did it break box office records worldwide and surpass James Cameron’s Avatar, it introduced us to new, intriguing characters, such as Rey (Daisy Ridley), Finn (John Boyega) and Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac).
The character that I, as well as many other Star Wars fans, are most interested in is the scavenger from Jakku, Rey.
Disclaimer: there will be spoilers for Star Wars: The Force Awakens beyond this point. This post will be about who I think Rey is, based on what I’ve seen in the movie.
