Star Wars Officially Unveils Its 2nd-Ever Force Dyad

by

The newest Star Wars show introduced another pair of characters connected by a rare Force phenomenon. This idea, called a Force dyad, first appeared in *Star Wars: The Last Jedi*, linking the heroes Rey and Kylo Ren through the Force. This connection allowed them to communicate and even exchange objects instantly across vast distances. Since then, fans have been eager to see if and where this powerful connection would appear again in the Star Wars universe.

The animated series *LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy: Pieces of the Past* recently introduced another pair of characters connected by the Force. In the second episode, siblings Sig and Dev Greebling are revealed to be a ‘Force dyad,’ a rare connection also seen between Rey and Kylo Ren in the *Star Wars* sequel trilogy.

While fleeing the dangerous Forcehold wasteland, Sig explains to his brother – a Sith with unique powers – that because they share a special connection through the Force, they must work together to survive.

Dev: “We can’t do this alone!”

Sig: “We’re a Force dyad, so that means we have to do things…”

Dev: “Together.”

The two heroes then worked together, using their abilities to both strengthen the opening to their home galaxy and prevent it from collapsing, before finally stepping through and continuing their journey across the cosmos.

Hints about this special connection between the two characters appeared in earlier episodes. In the season 2 premiere, Sig experiences vivid dreams about Dev, allowing her to see his location and activities even though he’s incredibly far away.

As a lifelong cinema devotee, I’ve always been fascinated by the idea of a truly profound connection between people. In the Star Wars universe, they call it a Force dyad, and it’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen. It’s essentially an unbreakable link between two people strong in the Force, one that transcends distance and even time. Imagine being so connected to someone that you could feel their emotions, see what they see, and even tap into their abilities – it’s a truly mind-blowing concept and adds a whole new layer to the possibilities of connection within the Star Wars galaxy.

As a huge Star Wars fan, it’s really cool to think about Force dyads – pairs of people powerfully connected through the Force. Before, we only really saw this happen with Rey and Kylo Ren in the newer movies, and their connection was a big part of their story!

In Star Wars stories, there have been past attempts to create a powerful connection called a dyad, but none succeeded. For example, Darth Plagueis tried to form one with his student, Darth Sidious (who later became the Emperor), but failed. Sidious later tried to create a dyad with Anakin Skywalker during the time of the Republic’s fall, but that also didn’t work.

While there have been similar connections shown in past stories, they weren’t called ‘dyads’ back then, because that term hadn’t been created yet. So, those connections weren’t officially labeled as such.

It’s important to remember that *Pieces of the Past* isn’t considered official Star Wars story material. This means Rey and Kylo Ren are still the only pair with a confirmed, powerful connection (called a dyad) within the official Star Wars timeline.

The new animated series, *LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy: Pieces of the Past*, is now available on Disney+. It follows brothers Sig and Dev Greebling as they navigate a quirky Star Wars universe and face off against the villain Solitus, who wants to reshape everything. Gaten Matarazzo from *Stranger Things* and Tony Revolori from *Spider-Man: Homecoming* provide the voices for Sig and Dev, respectively. The show also features performances by Bobby Moynihan, Marsai Martin, Michael Cusack, Ahmed Best, and Mark Hamill.

The Future of the Force Dyad in Star Wars

Okay, so technically this new *LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy: Pieces of the Past* story isn’t officially part of the Star Wars timeline, but honestly? It doesn’t even matter. It’s still a really fun ride!

The idea of a ‘dyad’ – a rare connection between two people strong in the Force – hasn’t been a major focus in Star Wars. That’s why fans are excited about any new information related to it.

It’s likely we’ll see even more romantic storylines and themes appear in the show as it continues.

It looks like Rebuild the Galaxy is likely to return for a third season, based on how Pieces of the Past ended. With Darth Dev’s apprentices now loose and causing trouble, Dev and Sig will probably team up again, and we’ll likely learn more about their strong Force connection.

It’s still unknown if the idea of the Force dyad will reappear in future Star Wars stories. While it might seem logical for it to be explored in the upcoming Rey movie (which has faced some development challenges), the death of Kylo Ren-Rey’s counterpart in the dyad-suggests it won’t be a major focus.

A potential movie, similar to James Mangold’s concept for a *First Jedi* film, could explore the idea of a Force dyad and delve into the history of the Jedi. You can find more details about the *First Jedi* movie here.
