The release of the latest full trailer for "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" in October made it look like Rey may be partnering up with Kylo Ren. The "Star Wars" villain extends his hand, seemingly to Rey, to show the young woman her place in the galaxy.
Many quickly dismissed the footage as a red herring to throw off audiences. But since then, other evidence has popped up on posters and theater displays making fans wonder whether or not Rey could be heading to the dark side.
We'll know soon enough when the movie comes to theaters. Until then, INSIDER went through the evidence that has fans thinking Rey may switch allegiances in "The Last Jedi."
1. An international poster has Rey front and center shrouded in red.
Mark Hamill tweeted it out to fuel the fan fire suggesting Rey could be turning to the dark side. It's also interesting that Luke is wielding a blue lightsaber while Rey doesn't hold any weapon.

2. Fans started questioning Rey's wardrobe on the IMAX poster.
Fans started questioning Rey's allegiance to the Resistance when they saw her shrouded in red on the IMAX poster for the movie.
Why is she wearing the color associated with the dark side instead of the light?

Wait. Why is Rey dressed in red? Dark Side? Actually I think a Dark Side Rey would be a cool plot twist. Hurry up December 15th! pic.twitter.com/tmybd3Ez1Y
3. We're more concerned about the unlit lightsaber that's in Rey's hand in the IMAX poster.
If Rey lit up that lightsaber, would it turn red or blue?
If it was a blue lightsaber, wouldn't she have had it lit up in the poster? Instead, she's staring intently at it as if she's hesitating to do so.
