Star Wars: The Last Jedi Almost Made Luke Blind

Star Wars: The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson recently teased a plot twist that almost made it in.

Johnson revealed to Vanity Fair that he toyed with a couple of interesting ideas for the character.

The director said he wanted to make Luke Skywalker blind.

Did I ever tell you that early on when I was trying to figure out the story for this, I had a brief idea I was chasing where I was like, ‘What if Luke is blind?’ What if he’s, like, the blind samurai?’ But we didn’t do it. You’re welcome.
