Rise of Skywalker Secretly Prepared More Than One Hundred Jedi for Rey’s Teach

With Star Wars: New Jedi Order on the horizon, Rey’s mission to rebuild the Jedi Order is one of the most anticipated storylines in the franchise. While fans have wondered who she will train, The Rise of Skywalker may have already set up over 100 potential Jedi recruits—including Finn and Jannah’s Company 77.

Finn & Jannah’s Stormtrooper Company May Be Force-Sensitive

Finn’s Force Sensitivity Was Hinted at But Never Explored

• The Force Awakens teased Finn’s Jedi potential when he wielded Anakin Skywalker’s lightsaber.
• The Rise of Skywalker confirmed Finn’s connection to the Force, though his arc was left unresolved.
• Finn’s ability to resist First Order brainwashing hinted at a deeper Force connection.

Jannah’s Story Suggests Company 77 Is Also Force-Sensitive

• Jannah’s company refused to fire on civilians at the exact same time, describing it as “a feeling.”
• Finn immediately recognized this as the Force guiding them, strengthening the idea that they are Force-sensitive.
• The collective defiance of First Order orders mirrors Finn’s experience, suggesting a shared Force connection.

Could Rey’s New Jedi Order Start With 100+ Recruits?

A Standard First Order Stormtrooper Company = 128 Soldiers

• If Jannah’s entire Company 77 is Force-sensitive, Rey already has over 100 potential Jedi trainees.
• While not all of them may wish to become Jedi, they could still be trained in the ways of the Force.
• This setup would redeem Finn’s arc, allowing him to fulfill his Jedi destiny and lead new Force users.

Why This Would Be the Perfect Redemption for Finn

• The sequel trilogy neglected Finn’s Jedi potential, despite heavy foreshadowing.
• A new Jedi Order led by Rey could finally give Finn the development he deserved.
• Jannah’s return would also expand the story beyond just Rey, making it a team effort.

Will Finn & Jannah Appear in New Jedi Order?

There’s no confirmation that John Boyega (Finn) or Naomi Ackie (Jannah) will return, but the foundations have been laid. Given the sequel trilogy’s missed opportunities, Lucasfilm has a chance to correct course and give these characters their proper arcs.
