Millennium Falcon Photos from the Star Wars: Episode VIII Set

Daily Mail has posted some interesting Millennium Falcon photos from the Star Wars: Episode VIII set at Pinewood Studios in Buckinghamshire. The photos, which you can view here and in the tweets below, show an impressive set featuring the Millennium Falcon and what looks to be a recreation of the Skellig Michael location used for the planet Ahch-To at the end of Star Wars: The Force Awakens and seen again in the announcement video from February. There’s something different though: A big, decaying tree.

In the Millennium Falcon photos, you’ll also see another set built by the Ahch-To set of a spaceport.
