The way of the Force just keeps getting higher and higher on both sides as the showing of "Star Wars Episode 8" draws nearer. Luke Skywalker is hinted at getting extra mind powers and Kylo Ren's garb has evolved into a Darth Vader-inspired costume. Fans are already theorizing on this new Jedi ability provided to Luke Skywalker.
The cliffhanger ending of "Star Wars Episode 7" had various types of fans excitedly waiting for the next installment. According to Melty, apart from the interesting story arcs and rumors surrounding Rey and Kylo Ren's character, Luke Skywalker has a few additional tricks potentially up his hooded sleeve. This was based on a Mark Hamill interview where he admitted that there was a filmed scene where he was calmly sitting on a rock and surrounded by some special effects.
Some fans speculate that this scene pertains to a new power called Force vision where he can see the Jedi future. Aside from this, a more detailed look of Luke Skywalker's new costume for "Star Wars Episode 8" was showcased recently to the public.

Digital Spy showed some snapshots of the new Kylo Ren garb with the meaningful cape addition. His last foray before murdering his father Han Solo in "Star Wars Episode 7" involved a seemingly fetish or fascination for Darth Vader. It was also half-inspired by Luke Skywalker's "Return of the Jedi" costume.
Among the hardcore "Star Wars" fans frequenting social media sites like Reddit, discussions and fan theories have fanned the flames of the Star Wars fever. One of the most widely discussed theories was the origin of Supreme Leader Snoke. One fan theorized that Snoke is in fact an evolved version of C3PO.
Even main character actors like Daisy Ridley are just as excited as the rest of the world to see how this new episode will fare worldwide. While the fandom continues to spread discussions like wildfire online, the stars themselves have been very cautious about revealing too many pivotal issues or concepts in the latest "Star Wars Episode 8" film.
