This is by far the biggest mystery plaguing Star Wars fans: who exactly are Rey's parents? There are a ton of theories about whose kid she is, but here are the main ones.
- Luke Skywalker is her father: This is the theory that makes the most sense, and the one we want to be true! Rey is drawn to Luke's former lightsaber, Maz tells Rey that she "knows" her eyes, and she's Force sensitive. Plus, Rey's musical theme is strikingly similiar to Luke's original theme, and Mark Hamill tweeted an eyebrow-raising picture of him with Daisy Ridley on the set. Like father, like daughter?
- Jyn Erso is Rey's mother: This theory was brewing ever since Felicity Jones was cast as the lead in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, but now that the trailer is out, it's picking up speed. The clues that Jyn may be Rey's mother include their physical resemblance, their similar rebel spirits, and the fact that the timing would work out pretty perfectly.
- Han Solo and Leia Organa are her parents: Some fans contend that Han and Leia are her parents, and they either don't tell her that she's their daughter or don't recognize her as an adult. This would make Kylo Ren her brother!
- She's Obi-Wan Kenobi's granddaughter: There are several hints that Rey is related to Obi-Wan, one of them being that he appears to her when she touches Luke's lightsaber. You can also could their similar costumes and British accents!
- She's not related to anyone — she's just Luke's former padawan: Another possibility is that her parents aren't really important; what's important is that (as the theory goes) she trains under Luke to become a Jedi but escapes Kylo Ren's wrath and is dumped on Jakku. If this is true, it makes sense that she has a connection to Luke but just isn't his daughter.
- She's born of the Force: Finally, there's the idea that she literally doesn't have parents. Like Anakin Skywalker, Rey could have been conceived by the midi-chlorians, the microscopic lifeforms that power the Force.
