More and more details are emerging about Episode VIII in the saga.
As well as intriguing new planets, there have also been descriptions of unusual new creatures.
The latest leaks describe an action-packed scene on the exciting “casino planet” that we now know will be called Canto Bight.
The chase and fight scene shows that Finn has recovered from his injuries at the end of The Force Awaknes and is working closely with a new sidekick, Rose, who was introduced at Star Wars Celebration.
WARNING: SPOILERS
Finn and Rose will ride one of the fleet-footed falthiers during the dramatic sequence.
Fan site MakingStarWars.Net says: “Falthiers are high-dollar “race horses” on the world (Canto Bight).
“The beige/brown falthiers were glimpsed last summer during filming on location in Dubrovnik. The head of the horse is sort of like a cross between a tauntaun and and the luck dragon from The Neverending Story.”
The site adds: “The sequence begins in the stables. Finn and Rose appear to be on the run, chased by men in “luxury speeders” and the Star Wars equivalent of tuxedos or formal wear.
“Finn and Rose duck into the stables and they’re met by an alien that tends to the stables… Finn fast-talks the guy as they steal the falthier and race away on the stolen steed.
“They’re eventually engaged in a fight with the speeder and the fancy Canto Bight guys. After they defeat the guys in the speeder thanks to Rose, they ride up into a coffee shop or cafe and meet their contact as scheduled.”
This new scene shows just how integral Finn has become to the plans of the Resistance.
Kelly Marie Tran’s character was revealed at Star Wars Celebration and described as a maintenance worker who is a reluctant hero.
From teh sound of teh new scene Rose will step up and become a dynamic and fully-fledged member of the new Star Wars team.
