Marvel Teases Kylo Ren’s Return, Keeping Ben Solo’s Future in Play

Overview

• The closing page of Marvel’s Legacy of Vader #12 declares “Kylo Ren… Will Return,” in an unusually explicit tease for the franchise.
• The issue is written by Charles Soule with art by Luke Ross, positioning the signal within current Star Wars canon publishing.
• The tease follows Adam Driver’s late-2025 comment that Disney canceled The Hunt for Ben Solo, a move that has not been reversed publicly.
• Lucasfilm has not announced any new on-screen plans for Ben Solo, and analysts note Marvel’s comics sometimes use bold language without indicating film or TV commitments.
• Fan campaigns have intensified, from online organizing to a banner flown over Disney’s Burbank lot, as Daisy Ridley’s cautious remarks and a Hollywood Reporter note about a possible future trilogy fuel speculation.
