@nana7marie

Thanks! Those covers and the pics look very good.

So lady in pink/magenta is probably Keri Russell. I hope her character has an active role in the story and is not just yet another cool character with a helmet.

EDIT:

I am just watching the article you linked to. OMFG, I am freaking! Those pics are f***ing awesome! OMG, the f***ing KoR!!! OMG, the caption under Kylo and Rey battling

STAR CROSSED
Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) and Rey battle it out with lightsabers in a stormy confrontation. Their Force-connection—what Driver calls their “maybe-bond”—will turn out to run even deeper than previously revealed.

Congrats JJ, I am now hyped.

Wow I love these covers, damn.

Wow, the covers look awesome. Prince Ben  

“And then he had been forging this maybe-bond with Rey,” Driver says, “and it kind of ends with the question in the air: is he going to pursue that relationship, or when the door of her ship goes up, does that also close that camaraderie that they were maybe forming?”

Okay I see rain in their scene. If there won't be kiss in the rain, I will riot. Watch it JJ!!!

Amazing!!

But there's one thing I didn't like: Daisy said Kylo had it all ( family ) and he threw it away...like Daisy...wtf are you talking about? She still understands nothing of the whole story as it seems Lol
Like Adam, the canon novels, the movie, JJ, Lucasfilm keep saying that Leia and Han were terrible parents, f****ing kitchen robots took care of the baby Ben, he was abused by Snoke, Leia pushed him away, his parents didnt give a single f**** about him since he was a child, they haven't seen him for more than 10 years ffs, Leia's soliders, the rebels could have killed him million times by now..like what kind of mother is she...resistance was more important to her than her own child...that's why Kylo rebels against the resistance..for personal reasons..


Daisy..seriously

The articles are all really nice.

A small treat, The Truth About Rey and Kylo's Relationship article with quotes from Adam and Daisy: https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2019/05/the-truth-about-kylo-ren-and-reys-connection

They are somewhat redeemed from RomanceGate. No David Kamp article LOL.

Kylo’s cover looks nice and I love that he is still in all black with hood(?)and the shot of a rain/storm fight looks nice. Star crossed haha. Thank God the trio isn’t the focus again but the 2 characters with the most interesting dynamic. Or are they releasing more covers? The written piece is almost boring.......

Great article and beautiful photos! I’m glad to see there will be more exploration of the Rey and Kylo dynamic.

What I find quite intriguing is that the article confirms that it’s the Knights of Ren that “Kylo is mowing down in The Rise of Skywalker trailer.” I’m glad to hear they’re in the movie, but if that’s correct, they and Kylo are going to clash. Very interesting!

OMG! They are beautiful!

@Oscarborough-fairo

That’s Daisy expressing Rey’s understanding and feelings, not her own, and Rey doesn’t know Kylo’s full history does she?

Vanity Fair wrote:When speaking about their characters with Grossman, both Ridley and Driver wound up describing similarly lonely and isolated childhoods for these Force-sensitive figures. Rey was literally abandoned by her parents—whoever they may be—and so has trouble comprehending how Kylo could shun his. But Ridley herself is much more understanding of the stress that might come from being raised by Han Solo and Leia Organa: “Having the two coolest parents and sometimes I’m sure it works amazingly, and sometimes it just might not.”

So are we finally getting our "cliff" scene?

Could a moderator merge all the threads about the VF article please ? (it’s all over this forum)

Daisy..seriously

To her defense she's talking about Rey's point of view not hers. That point of view was very clearly voiced in TLJ and seems to be still there in TRoS. And I can't believe I come to Rey's defense - she is not my favorite character by far - but her POV is as valid as anyone else's. Someone who lost their family at a young age will probably never fully understand someone who's fighting with their family and vice versa someone who has a difficult relationship with their parents might have a hard time accepting criticism when the other tends to idealize what could have been. I relate way more to Ben's because I do have issues with my family - although we still all talk to each other - but the reality is that they both suffered. Just saw @Cowgirlsamurai beat me to it.

I can't believe they gave us the names of the characters and names of planets and all. Very cool.

These are AMAZING.

I haven't had time to read the articles yet. But I have been looking at photos. I was preparing myself for just something mediocre but so far I have been very happy with what we are getting!

About the photo, it seems like Kylo is defending himself from Rey again. LOL!

Star Crossed..... force bond runs even deeper!

Am I allowed to post this? Can't remember all the rules!

Er, what? WHAT ?!?

In the first trailer for The Rise of Skywalker, we see Kylo Ren mowing through the knights with his lightsaber. Is this a flashback to a previous falling-out? Evidence of new dissent among the ranks? Or is it, as many hope, evidence that Kylo will turn on the bad influences in his life and join Rey in the light? We’ll find out when The Rise of Skywalker opens in theaters December 20.

Was that confirmed that it's a KoR he is putting down? Did I miss some information while binge-watching GoT and Lucifer?

HOLLY s***, God help me, they are so f****ing amazing. I have no words. I'm dead. Bye.

Squee! They are being obvious about Reylo and Bendemption! The mystery is - how this movies ties up the saga, and if he survives or not. LOVE THIS!

@SanghaRen

You didn't miss anything! It's a bit of news LF/Disney decided to reveal in the article.

Omg these are amazing !!!!!

Awesome! I was prepared for something boring and dumb like the fotos and the article for TLJ, but this is great.
Far more "reylo" than I dared to hope.
The background from the combined covers has a touch of "gone with the wind" with tis dramatic red clouds.
coincidence?

Finally!!!
Nice photos! I was expecting something more boring and less "reylo", I'm glad I was wrong.

@SanghaRen

WOW great info!
This is really interesting
