    Rey's staff is in the photo. I wonder if she has no lightsaber until she repairs it. Or maybe she keeps it hidden to not draw attention.

    Absolutely agree. A picture that defines a trilogy.
    Very sad and touching at the same time.
    Love it.

    I love Boyega’s hair here. He’s a very handsome man.
    Well spoted! It took me a while to find the staff... I also noticed Rey’s white costume is the same as the one we saw in the leaked photo with the other characters... I remember she had a leather bracelet in her upper arm and that her arm wraps were shorter than in the previous movies.

    I agree about John! His hair looks really good longer like that too.

    Yes, the leather bracelet thing seems to be concealing the scar she got in the fight with the Praetorian guards.

    Somebody figured out that Anthony Daniels' tweets have nothing to do with Episode IX and he basically confirmed it himself. Apparently it's for some memoir that he’s doing.

    Big spoilers by MSW:
    Episode IX
    Planets & Locations

    • Jason heard again that Jordan was used as a filming location for two planets.

    • One of them looks like Tatooine.

    • Lars homestead was reportedly built in Pinewood.

    • Tatooine is reportedly at the end of the movie.

    • It looks like a small Ahch-to set was built in Pinewood too.

    • The second Jordan planet could be named Pazama or something like that. Jason doesn't know the exact spelling and it's just my transcription.

    • There's a miners/fish market looking town. The whole town was built in Pinewood (so maybe it's the biggest set we heard about). Snowtroopers were there and snow special effects were used there.

    • Also, there is a droid factory on the miners/fish market set. It's an easter egg heaven - robot from Bad Robot logo is hidden there, John Williams' scores are somehow hidden there, few battle droids from The Phantom Menace, etc.

    • Kylo supposedly goes to a dark looking castle to get his helmet fixed in the movie - but this could be BS, because he also heard earlier that Knights of Ren fixed his helmet. There's some monkey looking creature on this set.

    • Kylo was a part of the swamp planet (Black Park) stuff. Kylo's pulling and throwing some Resistance soldiers, but he's probably separated from the main battle on that planet.
    Characters

    • Jason heard about the young Luke & Leia training flashback. Billie Lourd might have been a stand-in for CGI.

    • Jason seconds info about Keri Russell's character from this leak. She might have been on the snow planet, but Jason says he could be wrong about it.

    • Knight of Ren's weapons aren't the same as in The Force Awakens. They look like medieval weapons with Star Wars features. They look visually neat.

    • Jason doesn't know if any of the TFA's KoR is in IX.
    Ships

    • There's some really black TIE.

    • Luke's X-wing was on some set. Jason doesn't know if it's the ROTJ one or a different one.

    • Kylo supposedly has a new ship. It's white with red and black details. It has some cool gadgets.

    • Supposedly Vader's helmet is on that ship.

    • Jason heard that Falcon is on a fire at some point.

    • There's an orange X-wing with R2 unit in it. His source doesn't think it's Poe Dameron's.

    • Supposedly Rey has Luke's X-wing helmet.

    • There was supposedly a massive ship on the Cardington set. The final battle with zero gravity was probably filmed there.
    Plot

    • Jason's gotten info to suggest the MacGuffin changes, going from one thing which leads to something else, and that it ends up revealing the big secret of the movie.

    I think this is a great idea. Billie looks very much like her mother... And Billie playing Leia would be a lovely homage to Carrie.

    This movie is sounding interesting. Some of this lines up with some of the other recent rumors. Not sure what I think about

    kylo’s new ship. I liked the one in TLJ and some continuity would be nice

    Well, the previous ship got destroyed. So he needs a new one. Furthermore if fits with his mask.

    i'm almost certain the shocking thing we'll see in the trailer/teaser is the threat of the Falcon not making it.
    but of course it will make it. because Star Wars! : D
