    There are a lot of theories about their relationship, but how do you think they're related?

    Either she is his daughter or they are not related at all.

    I think so too. Theres also this theory that she was once one of Luke's students and Luke just used memory rub on her to forget about what Ben Solo did to his other students

    She's his daughter. The parallels in their stories are way too obvious, even the traits she shares with Anakin, and she has Anakin's latent ability with the force. She resembles her grandmother. To me there's no doubt she is Luke's daughter and if she's not then to me the story is somewhat ruined because the emotional payoff from VII is gone.

    Nope.

    Still putting money on Rey the chosen one, virgin birth.

    Honestly, at this point if she's not his daughter I'll be mad.

    God, I hope not.

    At this point I hope she is Lukes daughter but there is a possibility she is somehow related to Kylo like a half sister from one of Hans other girls. Han seemed to be no show father and embraced his flyboy, smuggler and adventurer destiny....who knows.

    Hoping she is Lukes daughter myself.

    I actually hope that they're not related. Her impact would be all the more impressive then.

    Father daughter 100%. The more interesting question is: Whos the mother.

    Got to be his Daughter. SW is after all the story of the skywalker family.

    I've changed my mind and am currently of the opinion that they're not related at all. However, Rey wants a family, and Luke's family was essentially destroyed, so I see the two forming a father/daughter relationship, and eventually Rey will take on the name "Skywalker". This would be the most interesting way to continue the family name, IMO.

    So who's Rey's actual biological parents and family? Well, whoever they are, I think they're bad news, and Rey will come to the conclusion that she won't want any part of them, hence Luke adopting her.

    As ridiculous as this may sound, I think Rey could be a Palpatine. This is pretty much the only thing that would be more shocking than the "I am your father" scene. Wouldn't it be ironic for a Skywalker and Palpatine to come together to fight evil? She kind of fought like Palpatine in the snowy forest duel and has the British accent which she could have picked up when she was a child in that family. Also, this would be a nice demonstration of Luke's lack of prejudice for not only training a Palpatine, but taking her on as his daughter. It's a nice lesson that demonstrates that no matter the circumstances surrounding your birth, you have always have the ability to make moral choices in your life and be a good person.

    I hope she is not related....the closest I can settle for is maybe the offspring of Kenobi's lovechild.....

    If she's NOT his daughter, then she's connected to him in some other way. There were too many teases/hints for them NOT to be linked in some way.

    I don't think they are related. At least not at this moment.

    Definitely father and daughter. originally thought it was Han because they could finish each other sentences, but after second viewing its definitely Luke is her father.
    The evidence (I think) :
    - Rey's flashback scene with R2D2 and Luke. Similar to Princess Leia sending R2D2 on a mission to find Ben in ANH. Luke is sending R2D2 back to Leia on a mission to power down and wake up when BB8 finds the missing piece and Rey is nearby
    - Rey's flashback scene with Rey left on Jakku with an old man (looks like Max Von Sydow's Lor San Tekka) who knows Princess Leia
    - Rey's mind thing with Kylo Ren where she dreams/fears of an island in an ocean which Luke is found
    - Luke to me is pulling strings and watching over her just like Obi Wan and Yoda from a far distance
    - The music played when Rey leaves Leia to goto Luke - i can not remember but it sounds like Luke and Leia's song (brother and sister)???
    - Kylo Ren keeps referring "that girl". if it was his sister, then it be "where is she??" not something harsh as "that girl". Hence a cousin relationship
    - Also KYLO is "sKYwalker soLO" and REY is skYwalkER

    Leia. That's why she's so powerful in the force.

    I feel like that might be why they chose Ridley. Driver looks a lot like Ford, but since they don't know who Luke's wife/hookup was yet, they picked someone who looks like Natalie Portman instead.

    Felicity Jones' character in Rogue One is my bet. The premise of that movie seems oddly out of place coming between TFA and VIII, especially when a young Han movie seems more appropriate right now. If Felicity Jones' character is Rey's mother, than it instantly becomes relevant coming just six months before the release of VIII.

    This. I think its one or the other. Personally, I think she's his daughter.

    Luke's monologue in the 2nd trailer is a big clue, I guess:
    "The Force is strong in my family.
    My father has it.
    I have it.
    My sister has it.
    You have that power, too."

    Maybe he was talking to a young padawan named Ben but something tells me that it's a message for Rey.
    Then she would be part of the Skywalker family. Which is huge.
