According to director J.J. Abrams himself, his version of Star Wars: Episode IX is completely different from the one envisioned by Trevorrow. In fact, Abrams previously revealed he and co-writer Chris Terrio started from scratch when they took over the sequel and began writing what became The Rise of Skywalker.
"We are both a little superstitious about starting with material that might lead us in a direction that's different than the one we might've gone in naturally," Terrio commented in an interview with TheWrap. "So we didn't begin with the previous script, there may have been certain elements that we used that had been in the original script and we weren't aware of it."
Ultimately, The Rise of Skywalker was met with mixed reviews from fans, with many wishing that the movie had been split into two separate episodes, however, the final chapter in the long-spanning Star Wars saga still managed to cross over $1 billion at the global box office.
In our own review of Episode IX, we concluded that the movie had been "engineered to hit the viewer on multiple levels while struggling to settle 42 years' worth of story elements," which we suggested was "too much for any one film to handle."
