This is n’t the first time thatDisney - eraStar Warshas flirted returning to the Death Star II ’s wreckage . Early concept prowess forStar Wars Episode VIIhas the character Kira ( who finally became Rey ) swim through the space station looking for scrap . This melodic theme was finally transitioned to Rey scavenging Star Destroyers on the desert planet Jakku , and now it front likeStar Wars 9is using the other side of it , with the fictitious character Kira became taking a squad to the superweapon . That concept is also why it seems dependable to say that the satellite is Endor - the concept art made very exonerated this was the Death Star submerged in a sea of the timberland Sun Myung Moon .

If we are returning to Endor , that would still only make Rey and co. the second mathematical group of sequel characters to visit the Ewok planet - Kylo Ren must have issue forth here before the events ofStar Wars : The Force Awakensto retrieve   Darth Vader ’s masque ( which is rumored to return inStar war 9 ) .
