The movie Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise Of Skywalker was billed as the final movie in the Star Wars movie franchise. It received mixed reviews but the breathtaking scope of the story and vision was expansive encompassing the whole of the universe created by George Lucas.

As with every movie several elements in the final script deviated from the final version. One of those concepts was what fans have nicknamed "Dark Rey". Recently professional concept artist Adam Brockbank shared several alternative versions of the character.

Adam Brockbank is a professional concept artist who's worked on Hollywood movies like Captain America: The First Avenger (2011), Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi (2017), and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016).

In the movie, Rey's been seduced to the Dark Side and even manifests Force Lightning which is usually used by Dark Side force users. She goes to the ruins of the Death Star and opens a door to sees an evil vision of herself. The moment is reminiscent of when Luke Skywalker goes to a cave on Dagobah and encounters of vision of himself as Darth Vader.

The moment is brief but was featured in the movie promotion. Last year Star Wars leaked a behind-the-scene image of Rey on the Emperor's throne labeled Empress Rey. Many fans have wondered if the moment was supposed to be more important to the story. 









He also shared a number of other deleted scenes like Chewbacca being tortured after being kidnapped by Kylo Ren and a battle in the docking bay of the Death Star.
