Or, for all intents and purposes, Luke dies.



When all hope seems lost, the legendary Jedi Knight arrives on Crait. After a touching reunion with his sister, Luke walks out to confront his old student, lightsaber at the ready... kinda.



It turns out Skywalker is only using the force to project an image of himself, and is actually back on the island. When Kylo "strikes him down in anger", we see Luke become one with the force as his body vanishes while he gazes at the twin suns one last time.



This will surely wind up being the most controversial thing about The Last Jedi, but it's a truly beautiful moment, and does make sense for the story that is unfolding in this trilogy.
