The rise of Skywalker reaches $ 1 billion worldwide box office and the original script by Colin Trevorrow is filtered before the arrival of J.J. Abrams
Star Wars: The rise of Skywalker continues to give much to talk; So much so, that the recent news that the J.J. Abrams has already managed to overcome the barrier of 1,000 million dollars at the box office worldwide, we must add the filtering of the original script by the filmmaker Colin Trevorrow discarded before the reinstatement of J.J. Abrams, a discarded script that would have resulted in a film quite different from the final result.
The rise of Skywalker reaches 1,000 million
Thus, Episode IX has already overcome the barrier of 1,000 million dollars worldwide box office after 28 days in cinemas around the world, with a distribution of about 481 million dollars domestically and about 519 million dollars in the rest of the world. All in all, the new Star Wars movie is Disney's seventh 2019 to overcome that barrier after Avengers Endgame, The Lion King, Frozen 2, Captain Marvel, Toy Story 4 and Aladdin.
In addition, it is the fifth Star Wars movie to reach 1,000 million after The Phantom Menace, The Force Awakens, Rogue One and The Last Jedi. Of course, the previous two episodes reached that figure in fewer days, 12 and 19, respectively.
On the other hand, the original script of Episode IX of 2016 has been leaked, when the project was still in the hands of the filmmaker and screenwriter Colin Trevorrow, known as Duel of the Fates. And although the first act is quite similar to that of the final film, we do find many differences in its development, without resorting to the figure of Palpatine beyond a hologram.
“In the Vader Temple, Kylo finds a Sith Holocron that reveals a Palpatine hologram. The recording is for Vader. Palpatine has a plan B for Vader if Luke kills him. Vader was to take Luke to the Remincore System to see Tor Valum, Master of the Sith and Palpatine's teacher. ”
On this occasion, Kylo Ren remains the main antagonist of the film until a new encounter with the ghost of Luke, in order to resist the dark side; in broad strokes, the groups of heroes divide to fulfill different missions, among them, to recover all the children sensitive to the Force (like the boy of the broom of the end of the last Jedi) until the final battle of King against the Knights of Ren.
The great revelation happens to know that it was Kylo Ren who killed Rey's parents under the influence of Snoke, which causes the final confrontation between Rey and Ren, at which time the ghosts of Luke, Obi-Wan and Yoda appear to Try to bring Ren to the bright side of the Force, without success. Finally, Kylo Ren dies and the Resistance takes control of the victory after defeating the First Order.
