We could go on and on about how "dreadful" Disney's Star Wars sequel trilogy is but despite it being incoherent in so many ways, you can't disregard the fact that it still had its redeeming qualities. One of which is the group of Force-sensitive warriors known as the Knight of Ren who pretty much serve as Kylo Ren's trusty minions.
The group was originally intended to appear in the Skywalker saga as early as The Force Awakens but J.J. Abrams admittedly couldn't find a way to squeeze them all in the film. Rian Johnson also had the same problem in The Last Jedi where the Knights were also originally set to get involved.
The group would eventually make its on-screen debut in 2019's The Rise of Skywalker but their brief involvement left too little to be desired. Now, what if I tell you that Lucasfilm is actually secretly developing a project centered on the Knights of Ren? Well, an alleged trailer leak suggests that's where the production company is headed next.
YouTube user Samuel Christopher uploaded an alleged "leaked" trailer for a Disney+ project starring the Knights of Ren and it's actually believable. The one-minute teaser sees one of the members of the Knights in action, demonstrating his power by taking down an X-Wing all by himself. Check it out here:

I gotta say, judging by its quality alone, I honestly wouldn't second guess the authenticity of the said trailer. Now, if it turns out to be fake, then mad props are in order for the people responsible for putting it together because it definitely looks like the real deal.
