'Star Wars' 8 To Undergo Rewrites To Add More 'Force Awakens' Characters? Luke Skywalker Scenes Rumored

The "Star Wars" frenzy is definitely not over yet. Following a massive success of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens," which was released in mid December last year, the eighth franchise is coming out in 2017 alongside speculations claiming that more of "The Force Awakens" characters will be included in the next episode - including Luke Skywalker, played by Mark Hamill.

Not long after "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" was released, several spoilers about what might be in store in the episode 8 have began to make rounds in the headlines, with questions asking as to who among the well-embraced characters will return when the new chapter begins.

While the official release of "Star Wars: Episode VIII" was originally scheduled at an earlier date next year, reports claimed that the movie has been rescheduled on a later release as the scripts need to undergo a final rewrite before its final screening.

This has brought up speculations claiming that the purpose of the rewrites was to arrange new roles and add more characters from "Star Wars: The Force Awakens." Adding to this, the hearsays added that Luke Skywalker's scenes for the new movie are in the works already with a rumored team up with Rey, played by Daisey Ridley.

The claims about Luke Skywalker's rumored scenes in the upcoming movie came from a fan site in Italy.

It reads, "In the scene we have Luke and Rey. The two, in the rain, they seem committed to training with Lightsabers, Luke with the historic green and Rey with that blue, belonged to his new master and even before Anakin Skywalker."

None of the rumors have been confirmed and the complete cast for the upcoming "Star Wars: VIII" are still yet to be announced.

Whether or not it is true that more characters from "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" will be included in the new episode, majority of the fans are certain that Luke Skywalker will definitely have a dialogue in the new movie at the very least.
