Rey went from nobody to Palpatine to Skywalker in the Star Wars sequel trilogy, but the idea of her being a Kenobi was also considered.
Rey was almost revealed as a Kenobi in Star Wars, an idea that would have radically changed the entire sequel trilogy. Although Rey ended up being Palpatine's granddaughter, director J.J. Abrams also considered making her a descendant of Obi-Wan Kenobi, a popular fan theory since the beginning of the sequel trilogy. This would have been a radically different approach to Rey's arc in the final version of the sequels and added new context to the entire Star Wars saga.
9 Rey Kenobi Could Have Created A Mandalore Connection Between The Movies & The TV Shows Rey Kenobi would naturally raise questions regarding how Obi-Wan had a granddaughter if Jedi are forbidden to have families, and one possible answer would be Duchess Satine Kryze of Mandalore. Obi-Wan met Satine as a Padawan when he was assigned to protect her and the two fell in love while they were on the run.
6 Kylo Ren Could Have Been The Main Villain Kylo Ren was initially set up as the main villain in Star Wars: The Last Jedi until Abrams decided to bring back Palpatine. Rey Kenobi would most likely remove Palpatine as the antagonist and allow Kylo Ren to take center stage, just as he did in Colin Trevorrow's script for Duel of the Fates. This would have distinguished Kylo Ren's arc from Darth Vader's and offered a far more interesting conclusion to the saga.
