ReleaseTheJJCut hashtag
#ReleaseTheJJCut is a hashtag reportedly trending on January 4, 2020 [1] [2] in response to a post in a Star Wars subreddit that made claims regarding a 3-hour cut of "Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker" submitted by writer/director J.J. Abrams before Disney cut down and re-shot the movie.
Another Star Wars subreddit post claims that Matt Smith, who in 2018 was reported by Variety [3] to be cast in a "key role" only to not show up in the final cut, was to play antagonist Son of Mortis.
