Split image collage of Darth Vader and his grandson Kylo Ren
Summary While it’s no secret that Star Wars' Kylo Ren was inspired by Darth Vader, Ben Solo's admiration for his grandfather went well beyond reverence and imitation. Indeed, in perhaps his most flattering move, Ren emulates one of Darth Vader’s most iconic Force powers.
So, it’s no surprise that when Kylo Ren, in the opening moments of Force Awakens, stops a blaster shot from Poe Dameron during the attack on Tuanul, fandom thought it had just witnessed a “new” Force power. But the reality is that the ability is a massive hat-tip back to Kylo's grandfather.
