Also, he’s going to have to beef up for the role: “My part in the next film will be much more physical so I might be in the gym a bit more”.

Collider sat down in an interview with Neal Scanlon, Patrick Tubach and Chris Corbould to talk about the deleted scenes in “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”. “Rey is a character that is important in this universe, not just in the context of ‘The Force Awakens, ‘ but in the entire galaxy”.
The director can not stop gushing about the success of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”, and he is simply thrilled that the new characters they introduced are so well-received that people are probably going to dress up as them come Halloween.
“Star Wars: Episode VIII” is coming to theaters May 26, 2017, while “Episode IX” is coming sometime in 2019.
“I’ve seen all of the theories and, you know, I have to practice how to answer these questions”, he began. The website speculates that while Kylo Ren and Rey are polar opposites of each other, It could be possible that they will be fighting alongside each other to bring balance to the Force.
What strikes us most when watching the 10-minute reel full of green screens and computer-generated spaceships, is just how many practical effects are revealed, where scenes were physically produced without any post-production gimmickry.

Trevorrow’s response seems to tease an “Episode IX” reveal for Rey’s history instead of Episode “VIII”.

While Abrams won’t direct either Episode VIII or Episode IX, he’s still excited for to see the film as a “Star Wars” fan himself. Things such as the appearance of Princess Leia, the return of Yoda, Ahsoka Tano reminiscing about Anakin and even facing off with his latest incarnation, Darth Vader.
