Disneyland Resort, California: General Discussion

Disney finally admits defeat: Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Timeline Soon Expands at Disneyland

Darth Vader, Luke Skywalker, Han, Leia, John Williams' classic score, and the iconic Cantina Band tune are all coming to Galaxy's Edge as they walk back one of the most baffling decisions in recent theme park history: building an immersive Star Wars area and setting it very specifically during the timeline of the mostly terrible sequel trilogy. From the article it seems like the only character from the new movies who will remain out and about is Rey.

With the upcoming Mandalorian retheme of the Millenium Falcon ride the last part of the land that will really reflect the new trilogy will be Rise of the Resistance. Unfortunately that ride is still so popular that I doubt they'll touch it but the good thing is that the new movies are such an obvious and shameless copy of the original trilogy that a retheme would barely cost anything and could be done in a matter of weeks. Replace the Rey hologram with a Leia one, the little sphere robot becomes R2-D2, and swap Kylo Ren's helmet out for Darth Vader's and you've basically reverted everything that ties it to the new movies instead of the old ones. Thank you, Mr. Abrams.
