Han Solo in TFA, flashbacks, and new teaser ??!
28th February 2015 |
February saw a busy month with Star Wars Episode VII reports and contradictory rumours. Firstly, MSW spilled the beans on Han Solo's possible fate in The Force Awakens : not only with the main villain Kylo Ren involved, but also a possible revelation too !
Alongside that was a very strange rumour-report that declared Luke would only have a few cameos in TFA, primarily in some final scenes and possibly in a flashback sequence. Regarding the "flashback sequence(s)" MSW seemed to have quite some detail, implying a Jedi Academy attack and a search for a lost item ; also a more recent report suggesting that actor Robert Boulter might be playing Luke Skywalker, either in a post-ROTJ timeframe, or even earlier ?
Character names have also surfaced in report or rumour : we seem to have a young Tarkin involved, and the on-set production codename of Kira now might be part of Rey's actual on-screen identity.... especially if Rey and Kylo Ren are siblings.... And the actor Domnhall Gleeson - who has been keeping a very low profile regarding Star Wars - has been associated with the Skywalker line, as well as having both a Rebel and an Imperial agenda - contradictory, confusing, and might even be playing both roles in an undercover ploy.... ?
MSW also published a detailed report on scenes involving a huge freighter, the Falcon inside the freighter, pirates, and Han, Chewie, Rey, and Finn ; unfortunately, at this stage, this report seems to hold many contradictory facts based on what we currently know or assume, particularly Rey's knowledge and role as daughter.

The latest update for our Virtual Edition of Episode VII : Plague of Doom, has two separate pieces of artwork : continuing the attack run on Kessel and an extra image by co-author and illustrator Scott presenting Doctor Bloodory's laboratory. |
Leia Solo leads part of her 'Devil Squadron' deeper into the narrow geyser-filled rift canyon ! Aware of one pilot's loss, she mutters a heart-felt apology to him, and then urges the other wingmates to re-focus ! |
|
Scott has produced this amazing 'establishing shot' of Doctor Bloodory's laboratory. In the Virtual Edition Episode VII's earlier scene 77, Luke Skywalker and Alana Seren stumble into the evil doctor's laboratory... as they descend the staircase, they discover to their surprise Alana's uncle unconscious on a medical table ! |
|
From the very beginning of drafting Plague of Doom Scott was keen to echo the Flash Gordon influences and mesh them in with a swashbuckle setting alongside the gothic elements of Frankenstein. |
You can see the VE artwork in the 'Kessel' art gallery as well as in the online illustrated story, and you can discuss this in the forum here ! |
