Finn

He survived Kylo Ren. Will he survive Episode IX? (IMage: Disney/Lucasfilm)

Finn has a huge opportunity in Episode IX. Twice now he’s been a deserter (though his second attempt failed). He’s shown no real loyalty to the Resistance until the end of The Last Jedi. Then, as he tries to sacrifice himself in the name of the Resistance, he’s prevented from doing so. This one is hard to predict. Will Finn survive Episode IX?

Prediction: 50/50 chance of survival.

Kylo Ren

Vader didn’t survive his third movie. Will Kylo Ren? (Image: Disney/Lucasfilm)

Kylo Ren murdered his own father. He attempted to obliterate his uncle. He’s acted like a petulant child through two films now, throwing tantrums when he doesn’t get his way. The character is neither likeable, nor relatable, nor intimidating. I hate to admit it but there are few characters in Star Wars that I find more disinteresting than Kylo Ren. To bring the Skywalker saga to an end, Kylo Ren has to die.

Prediction: 5% chance of survival.
