I have checked with my sources on these rumors and I can exclusively confirm the following:
  • Yavin's moon Yavin 4 is featured prominently in a Disney Star Wars film.
  • Maz has indeed played some role in acquiring Luke's saber prior to it's appearance in The Force Awakens. I cannot confirm the Lando rumors.
  • Rey will possibly look different than she did in TFA or TLJ.
  • The main trio will feature prominently in the film and most likely adventure in some capacity.
  • While I cannot yet confirm Lucas's direct involvement in IX, I have heard he has had significant input into shaping the universe.

Like Skywalker unencumbered by an aged physical body plays into the original idea that was pitched that he would be a "force master" and do all this crazy shit. I foresee this happening in 9.

I could believe everything but Lucas consulting. Nahhhh, bullshit.

Also, while I really like TLJ, if they were intent on bringing Luke back as a force ghost for long stretches of the movie, it would be a complete betrayal of Rian's intentions. It would indicate Disney was unhappy with Luke's resolution in Episode VIII

Rian can go to Degobah for all I care, JJ should show the same amount of respect for Rians intentions as Rian showed JJ. Infact I think fans are banking on Rian threads being scrubbed out completely.

Guys I heard a rumor that in episode 9 we find out about Snoke's backstory and also about the mystical lightsaber that was Luke Skwalker's and also who Rey's parents really are and how Poe is now demoted to Rebel Janitor and Finn brings his comedy chops from "the hood" and Rey struggles throughout most of the movie because she's just a girl who has no fighting experience and also Kylo is actually a good guy deep inside and its all Leia's fault he went bad which is revealed when her space mails get leaked.

Then at the end Luke Skywalker shows up because he faked his own death and brings down a Star Destroyer with his mind to save the day while twirling his lightsaber around fighting both Snoke and Jar Jar Plagueis with one hand.

If stuff from this is true, it's mostly through lucky guesses. Disney keeps Star Wars even closer to its chest than Marvel.

Only thing I'll say is that the Yavin stuff does have a ring of truth to it given that MSW did report that the IX production is using the same sheds Rogue One did for their Yavin base.
