Star Wars fans urged to flee social media after Rise of Skywalker spoilers leak: 'Every one was accurate'

'I’m leaving Twitter until I’ve seen it,' one worried fan wrote

Star Wars fans are being ordered to leave social media due to spoiler-heavy leaks of plot points featured in new film The Rise of Skywalker.

Despite efforts from Disney to prevent anything from dropping ahead of the film’s release, plot twists have been making their way around the net.

Following the film’s premiere, those who have seen the movie have confirmed that the leaks doing the rounds, which include actual scene descriptions and images, are completely accurate.

As a consequence, fans are going to extreme lengths to stop themselves from having anything spoiled.

Concerned followers of the Star Wars franchise are now fleeing Twitter or muting possible words related to the series in an attempt to avoid having anything spoiled before they get a chance to see the film.

The place you will be most in danger of discovering leaks is the Star Wars subreddit page.

Reviews for the new JJ Abrams-directed film have just dropped and it seems reaction has proved rather divisive.

The film is being criticised for seeming to “apologise” for Rian Johnson’s previous outing, The Last Jedi.

Despite this, many – including The Independent – are praising the “wonderfully chaotic” film for the series best performances from Daisy Ridley and Adam Driver.

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is released in UK cinemas on 20 December.
