We’ve been hearing a great deal about a number of scenes that were shot for Star Wars: The Force Awakens but never made it into the final film. We know exactly how many of those scenes will be part of the DVD release for The Force Awakens. Now, we know what one of those scenes will be, and it’s not anything we’ve heard about before. Kylo Ren made it on board the Millennium Falcon. Skip to the :48 mark to see Kylo in action:
Disney has released a new trailer for the Digital HD and Blu-Ray release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens which will hit on April 1. The trailer covers several of the special features that will be included. Among them, will be this deleted scene of Kylo Ren entering the Millennium Falcon after Stormtroopers have checked it for life. Ren enters and says a single word. "Solo."
While not explicitly stated, this scene must be part of the sequence on the planet Takodana while Rey, Finn, and Han Solo are there looking for help from Maz Kanata. After the First Order arrived, everybody scattered which would have left the Millennium Falcon empty when Kylo Ren showed up. Others suggest it could take place on Starkiller Base. The presence of Snowtroopers with Kylo Ren boosts that theory. It will be interesting to see how much of this scene there actually is. The son of Han Solo stands aboard his father’s ship, a place we can assume he has been before, but not for an awfully long time. It might give us some insights into Ben Solo that we didn’t have before.
While several of the people behind Star Wars: The Force Awakens have spoken about deleted scenes in the past, this one has not been mentioned. We’re expecting to see more with Rey and more with Han Solo, and likely a great deal more with Maz Kanta, but Kylo Ren is news. We also know there will be exactly seven deleted scenes as part of the DVD, so now we can start guessing what the remaining six will be.
Will you be picking up Star Wars: The Force Awakens on DVD on April 5th? Are you looking forward to all the extra features, or do you just want to see it again? Of course, it’s still in most theaters so if you just want to watch it again you don’t have to wait a month.
