Mark Pickup, an extra on Star Wars: The Force Awakens, mentions that the Skywalker saga could return to the desert wasteland of Jakku in Star Wars: Episode IX.
Production on Star Wars 9 is set to begin in January 2018, ahead of the film’s May 2019 release date.
Though viewers are still waiting to see the middle chapter of the sequel trilogy, Rian Johnson’s The Last Jedi, Lucasfilm is gearing up to start filming on the grand finale.
Of course, with rumors saying Tatooine might show up in the new trilogy, Abu Dhabi could be used for that planet instead of Jakku.
