You think Game of Throneshas fan theories?China Archives That's cute. Nowhere's got fan theories like the galaxy far, far away. (I blame Supreme Leader Snoke, but that's just my theory.)
Many of these theories currently concern the notion that there is more than one Jedi in The Last Jedi. Director Rian Johnson keeps shooting that whole thing down -- Luke is specifically named the last Jedi in the opening crawl of The Force Awakens, he notes. This ancient, lightsaber-twirling, Force-filled order has no other official adherents, and Luke thinks it must end.

Well then, say those who remember former Stormtrooper Finn wielding Luke's lightsaber twice in The Force Awakens, maybe Finn is a Jedi? As this Reddit thread notes, his stormtrooper name, FN-2187, recalls the obscure indie movie 21-87, where George Lucas found inspiration for the Force.
Well, if that's so, the actor playing the guy isn't helping.
"There are loads more stronger characters in the Star Wars universe that can go up against Jedi and they don't necessarily have to be a Jedi," Boyega told Digital SpyFriday, in response to the question of whether he'd like to be a Jedi.
"I think it would be more interesting if they had more than one person be a Jedi – but I think that that is the one of the unspoken laws of Star Wars. They only have one who has to go away and train."
It isn't exactly an unspoken law, but Boyega has a point. Having dozens of superhuman, above-it-all Jedi was part of what made the prequels less interesting than the originals for many disappointed fans. Obi-Wan, Yoda and Luke all benefited from being the last known Jedi in the galaxy in Star Wars, Empire Strikes Backand Return of the Jedirespectively.

But, interestingly, the movie appears to be subverting the expectation that this will be another Yoda-trains-Luke scenario. Luke is evidently afraid of her; she may well have been involved in the destruction of his Jedi Academy and she apparently has some kind of involvement with Snoke.
Perhaps she overcomes that -- but even if the story is on the original trilogy timeline, Rey wouldn't become a Jedi until Episode IX. And what if the Star Wars saga went in a more interesting direction, as it did when the Clone Warshero Ahsoka Tano walked away from the Jedi order altogether? What if the title is literal and final, and there are no more Jedi after Luke?
We'll find out more when The Last Jediopens December 15. But as Luke himself has already warned theatergoers: This is not going to go the way you think.
