<img src="https://https://static0.srcdn.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Qira-Rey-Mom-Star-Wars-Solo.jpg" /><p><a href="https://screenrant.com/tag/han-solo/"><strong><em>Solo: A Star Wars Story</em></strong></a> features a British brunette in a lead role, but fans should know going in that Emilia Clarke's Qi'ra is not Rey's mother. The Jakku scavenger's heritage was one of the hottest discussion points in the aftermath of <a href="https://screenrant.com/tag/star-wars-7/"><em>The Force Awakens</em></a>, as fans came up with a plethora of theories about who Rey's parents were.
