Apparently AV Club is corroborating it as well.
Slashfilm too I believe. What is it with this movie and leaks?
Okay having read both breakdowns (I hope the script leaks so I can just read that), here’s how I feel…
Pros:
- Rey Nobody.
- Apparently a major role for Rose.
- Luke haunts Kylo.
- Palpatine isn’t back.
- Return to Coruscant Jedi temple.
- Rey trying to move beyond the Jedi teachings.
- Weird Force stuff.
Neutral:
- Rey becomes a grey Jedi. Would come down to execution.
- Rey getting blinded. Same.
- Kylo finds a holocron with Palpatine contingency mission for Vader to find his master.
- Most of the other things described. Basic SW stuff, hard to say.
Cons:
- Kylo Ren in general. Basically goes full evil. Apparently at the last minute he saves Rey which actually kind of makes it worse. Trash.
- Rey and Poe romance. Lame.
- Minimal Leia presence, and this is before Carrie’s death.
- Kylo killed Rey’s parents. Awful.
It’s a tough decision, but I’ll go with TROS. Kylo gets shafted in this one. Granted, Rey gets shafted in TROS, but it’s hard to know for sure if this script actually treats her significantly better.
That said, it’s important to remember this is just one draft of an ever-changing script. There would likely have been drafts before this one, and definitely after as well.
