Star Wars fans are more thrilled than ever to get a glimpse of what the next Star Wars movie, Star Wars: Episode VIII will be. Fortunately, Star Wars Celebration Europe have just made a series of dazzling revelations about the upcoming Star Wars film.

Star Wars: Episode VIII Revelation #1 - It is a Direct Sequel to The Force Awakens

In the early stages of the photography production of Star Wars: Episode VIII, Mark Hamill who plays the role of Luke Skywalker, and Daisy Ridley who plays the role of Rey, are brought to the island where the last scene of The Force Awakens happened.

The exact location of the previous movie's last scene will be where Star Wars: Episode VIII will commence. Johnson says, "I don't want to skip ahead [after] that last moment of 'Episode VII.' I want to see what happens next."

Star Wars: Episode VIII Revelation #2 - Focus on Main Characters

Star Wars The Force Awakens is often criticized for being mostly too much patterned on the original trilogy, making it look classical. The previous movie was indeed a movie that is made for the fans.

But things are going to change as Star Wars: Episode VIII will be more inclined into revealing a deeper insight into the personality of the characters. Johnson says in a statement, "The second film is where we zoom into the characters, getting to the heart of them and challenging them."

Star Wars: Episode VIII Revelation #3 - Funeral of Han Solo

It is highly likely that there are a lot of people who still haven't moved on from the death of the much-loved character of Han Solo. Good thing that the chances of having a Han Solo funeral for Star Wars: Episode VIII is highly possible. Carrie Fisher confirms this speculation during the Star Wars Celebration.

Star Wars: Episode VIII Revelation #4 - Luke Skywalker Gets to Speak

One of the things that angered some fans is that Luke Skywalker was just seen for a very small fraction of a minute in The Force Awakens. In Star Wars: Episode VIII, the Skywalker legend would surely be the main character role.
