"Star Wars: Episode 7" rumors reveal that the Death Star and the Empire might figure in some way in the new Disney trilogy, as a photo of the crew building the Millenium Falcon and the X-Wing Fighter in the UK is leaked online.
JJ Abrams fueled the "Star Wars: Episode 7" rumors when he posted on his social media page, as he has been doing for the past few weeks, a note which reads: "Why do I suddenly have a desperate need to own a watch? Damn you, Apple!!!"
For Comic Book Movie, however, the tongue-in-cheek words don't really have any significance compared to where the note is placed, which was on a glass panel where familiar lights are reflected.
It said that the presence of the stormtroopers seemingly confirmed the "Star Wars: Episode 7" rumors that the Empire would have some role to play in the new Disney film. But the lights reflected on the glass panel points towards the Death Star in "Return of the Jedi."
"So the question is, will we see a new one? It's not a given, as those displays could just as easily feature on a Star Destroyer or something, but it is worth considering," it said.
Earlier "Star Wars: Episode 7" rumors revealed that there would be no Jedi in this new film, which had fans questioning since the Empire was supposed to have been vanquished by the Jedis.
Meanwhile, photographer Matthew Myatt took photos for a promotion of a flying school and one of the pics, however, clearly shows the Millennium Falcon as well as the smaller X-Wing fighter beside it. The Millennium Falcon was the famous ship by Han Solo and his loyal sidekick Chewbacca.
It was the same ship where Harrison Ford sustained an ankle injury which delayed production for a couple of weeks.
"It wasn't too clear until I viewed the picture and then realized what it was. I grew up with Star Wars so I started jumping around," he told BBC.
