I think the bigger bombshell is that they apparently weren’t even sure if Rey would be a Palpatine while they were filming Episode IX. What a mess!

Lol. No plan at all.

I always assumed this, as both Obi Wans had multiple lines in her Forceback.

Palpatine was added at the last minute, Matt Smith was casted as a new villain I have heard that before, and I’m finding myself more and more inclined to believe it. It just seems crazy to think that they completely changed what the movie was about while they were already in the middle of filming it. Even Justice League still kept the same basic plot and villain.

I wish they stuck to that plan. There were clues in The Force Awakens that hinted she could be related to Obi-Wan Kenobi. First, Daisy Ridley kept her British accent whereas John Boyega was told to speak in an American accent. Rey is also skilled at doing Jedi mind tricks, which Obi-Wan was a master at.
I also loved the idea of an older Skywalker training a young Kenobi; it's almost like the relationship between Obi-Wan Kenobi and Luke Skywalker but in reverse. It's a shame they didn't stick to it.

I'm glad they didn't go with that. The exposition required around a grandchild of Obi-Wan would have been even more stupid than that of going with Palpatine.
Not to mention that it would further stuff up the "last hope" OT concept if Obi-Wan - as well as dismissing Leia - decided to forget about his own offspring! Plus you'd also have the problem of OT v PT force lineage further highlighted which you'd have to address then as well.
I just wish they'd just stuck with the original trailer Skywalker offspring reveal, explicitly stated it in TFA and then made the trilogy on that basis instead of the mess we got - basically a trilogy of "Who is Rey?" with nothing further sustaining interest.

Or stick with the optimistic Luke of the Episode 7 trailer. That slightly altered version of Episode 6 dialogue is the closest we ever got to real Luke in the DT.
