Lucasfilm abandoned big plans for the Knights of Ren in two major projects. Star Wars' sequel trilogy uncovered the Knights of Ren, a cult-like enclave of masked dark-side warriors, led by Adam Driver's Kylo Ren, who wielded a variety of weapons and crudely utilized the Force. The ancient cult acted as Kylo Ren's enforcers, acting in the background throughout the trilogy and living by the ways of Ren, a dark-side-oriented religious ideology.The Knights of Ren finally got their dues in The Rise of Skywalker, assisting Kylo in enforcing his will within the First Order and helping him hunt Rey on Pasaana.
