Kathleen Kennedy recently sat down with Vanity Fair.
In the interview, she shed light on R
ey Kenobi
theories.
In 2015, Rey’s parentage was hotly debated.
Fans theorized that she was possibly a Skywalker, Solo, Palpatine, or a Kenobi.
Fans now know that Rey is a descendent of Emperor Palpatine.
Kathleen Kennedy told Vanity Fair that Rey Kenobi was never in the cards.
She said that Kenobi having a child would be “really impacting the rules around the Jedi.”
She said it, “flies in the face of everything George created in the mythology.”
She said it was a “pretty significant tenet in the mythology of the Jedi that we’d be reluctant to mess with.”
