Star Wars: J.J. Abrams says he'd like to see a Knights of Ren anthology film

We previously saw a glimpse of the Knights in Episode VII

Since the Star Wars Celebration over the weekend, numerous tidbits of information about the future of the now-Disney franchise have hit the internet.

However, news about the intergalactic franchise hasn't just come from the convention; while promoting the upcoming Star Trek film, Force Awakens director JJ Abrams revealed the Anthology film he would love to see.

For those unaware, Disney is set to release numerous Star Wars spin-offs, called ‘anthology’ films, the first of which is titled Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Following Episode VIII, the next anthology film will be about Han Solo’s younger years, the lead actor of which has just been announced.

So, what spin-off would Abrams like to see? “I gotta say Kathy Kennedy, who’s running it all, she seems to be pushing all the right buttons,” he told Collider. “There isn’t something that I’d love to see—I guess the one thing I would say is there’s a Knights of Ren story that I think would be pretty cool to tell.”

During The Force Awakens, the audience were briefly introduced to the Knights of Ren, of whom lead villain Kylo Ren was a member. Very little is known about the group except they turned on the Jedi and killed most of Luke Skywalker’s academy.

Perhaps Abrams will be back in the Star Wars Universe to make a Knights of Ren film? We can only hope.

Meanwhile, Rogue One is seemingly bringing back a familiar face from the prequels.
