Up until now, old school characters from the original Star Wars trilogy had been banned from Black Spire Outpost by Walt Disney Imagineering and Lucasfilm.

The Jedi Master will soon make his West Coast debut, further shattering the setting for the Star Wars theme park universe.

Needless to say, a lot of fans are quite happy to see Luke Skywalker finally appear as a character in Galaxy’s Edge. They were disappointed that the previous story prevented him from showing up. The land was supposed to be set following the events of Star Wars: The Last Jedi, so even having an older Luke appear was off the table.

Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland and Walt Disney World is a Star Wars fan’s dream come true in many ways. But one thing about it that no one is happy with is the fixed timeline to the sequel trilogy.

Disney teased the arrival of Luke Skywalker for a possible character meet and greet at Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. More details are coming this week!
