Star Wars New Movie Trilogy: Who Will Return?

Star Wars New Movie Trilogy: Who Will Return?

Darth Vader. Luke Skywalker. Princess Leia.

Who hasn’t heard of Star Wars and its cast of world-famous characters? A movie franchise that began back in 1977, Star Wars has been one of, if not the most popular, movie franchises in history, with the entire franchise being valued at over $10 billion.

So, many fans and movie lovers are excited to learn that Lucasfilm has announced five new movies and TV shows, all debuting in 2024 and later.

One of the films that is due to be released is Rey’s New Jedi Order, which Disney and Lucasfilms have hinted will be released around December 2025. It is set to be directed by Sharmeen Obaid Cinoy and is to be based around the character Rey creating a new Jedi order 15 years after The Rise of Skywalker.

This has led many fans to question if any of the previous characters are set to return in the newest instalment.

1xBet odds at 3.5 predict a 28.57% chance that characters Poe Dameron & Finn will return in the new Star Wars trilogy. To place a bet or to view the current Odds now, click HERE.

Who Is Likely To Return?

As with most Disney films, it is highly likely that this newest instalment will introduce as many new characters as it can to the Star Wars franchise. However, the most recent edition of Star Wars films has seen several of the former Jedi and force users come back. This creates a sense of continuity in the movies and gives something for fans to gush over. So, it is highly likely that as Rey is trying to construct her new Jedi order, many of the previous characters from the franchise may return.

Who is the most likely? Movie Web has a list of potential candidates, with Finn, Grogu and Ezra Bridger all being in the top 10 likely to return.

Finn is the most obvious choice to be a returning character in the new Star Wars movie. Not only was he one of the leads in the sequel trilogy, but he was also featured predominantly in the marketing of The Force Awakens. So, it seems highly likely that this character is going to return alongside Rey.

Poe Dameron

Interestingly, Poe Dameron is not on the above list, but many fans feel he is set to return. So, who exactly is Poe Dameron? In the movies, he is an X-wing fighter pilot for the resistance and brings the aforementioned renegade stormtrooper Finn and Rey into the battle against the First Order.

Fans have also noted that he could be a potential love interest for Rey, making it more likely that the franchise will reuse the character. Romance aside, he may be bought back as part of the ever-growing continuity across the movies.

If you have a hunch that both Dameron and Finn will return to the new Star Wars trilogy, you could win £350 by betting £100 at 1xBet today if they do.
