If you haven’t already heard, Stormtrooper for the Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is getting a major makeover. Gone is the smooth white armor and in comes a fiery red angular getup. And oh, it won’t be called Stormtrooper anymore. It has gone full-on Sith and as such, hence forth it will be called Sith Trooper. I am not even making this up. Sith Trooper it is now. It is unclear if the makeover will improve the troopers’ aim.
