They have a Rey movie in the pipeline where he is dead. Bob wants him to stay that way.There was never any intention to include him in anything post TROS.

Every single day, sigh, what might have been...

It is a great movie and features one of my favorite themes: destructive obsession.

Ha, my bff is friends with him and he was at a family event that I attended. He's really nice and his wife is gorgeous.
