Star Wars 8 LEAK: Darth Vader’s role in The Last Jedi REVEALED?

The Force Awakens saw the melted helmet of Darth Vader in a scene with his grandson Kylo Ren, but what role will the dead Sith Lord play in Star Wars: The Last Jedi.

Now theorist Mike Zeroh, who claims he has a source, has revealed alleged new details of Darth Vader’s role in the upcoming movie.

In his new YouTube video, he says: “Darth Vader will hold a true presence once again, even stronger than how it was presented in The Force Awakens.

“Now leading into The Last Jedi, Holdo exploits Leia and where she comes from, causing the Resistance to split into two.”

He continued: “Leia has two nicknames, Hutt Slayer and The Daughter of Death.

“Darth Vader’s melted helmet makes another brief appearance in The Last Jedi, sitting in the background of Kylo Ren’s throne room where his Knights of Ren are stationed.

“Other charred remains of the Sith Lord’s armour are seen protected behind transparent material.

“Characters in The Last Jedi to mention the name Darth Vader are Rey, Holdo, Snoke and Luke Skywalker.”

Zeroh added: “Rey has seen this figure locking lightsabers with the Jedi Master Luke Skywalker himself in a vision.

“In a scene, Rey brings herself to question Luke Skywalker of who he was and this sets up the storytelling of Kylo Ren’s history.

“Snoke will be a conduit into a deep and intellectual lecture of Kylo’s grandfather, to encourage him and rid the pull to the Light.

Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi is released in UK cinemas on December 14, 2017.
