Warning: this article contains spoilers for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker!
Update: While neither Lucasfilm nor Colin Trevorrow have commented on the leak, The AV Club reports it's been able to independently verify the Episode IX script is legitimate. Take that for what you will.
The original story is below:
In another major shift, Duel of the Fates doesn't reveal Rey to be Palpatine's granddaughter, but maintains her status as "no one." Instead, the big reveal is that Kylo Ren murdered Rey's parents at the behest of Supreme Leader Snoke. The script culminates in a final battle between Rey and Kylo Ren on Mortis (a mystical planet in the ethereal realm of the Force, as seen on Star Wars: The Clone Wars). The ghosts of Luke, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Yoda appear in one final attempt to redeem Ben, but unlike in The Rise of Skywalker, he's too far gone to be saved.
The leak contains a number of other interesting details, including a grotesque description of Tor Valum as a 7000 year-old Lovecraftian creature, Kylo Ren forging a new mask of Mandalorian metal and then battling a hallucination of Darth Vader (Dagobah cave-style), Chewbacca flying an X-Wing during the Battle of Coruscant, and Lando being called upon to rally the galaxy's smugglers to aid the Resistance.
Again, unless Lucasfilm or Trevorrow elect to comment, there's no way of knowing whether this leak is legitimate or simply an elaborate work of fan-fiction. Do you think it's real? Should Episode IX have followed Trevorrow's supposed story? Let us know what you think in the comments below.
Regardless of whether this leak is real, we do know there were some major scenes cut from The Rise of Skywalker, including scenes that reveal more about how Palpatine survived. Actor Dominic Monaghan recently voiced his desire for a director's cut version of Episode IX.
