'Star Wars: Episode IX' Rumor Claims Millennium Falcon Might Have New Look
By Kwadar Ray
Despite its beat-up exterior, the Millennium Falcon from Star Wars has played a role in some of the Rebel Alliance and the New Republic's most significant victories. From Lando Calrissian to Han Solo, the Falcon has been utilized by some of the franchise's biggest heroes.
The starship has been redesigned on multiple occasions since its debut in the first Star Wars film. And now, it looks like there will be another modification to it for Star Wars: Episode IX.
Fantha Tracks reports that the Millennium Falcon will "sport a new style sensor array dish, different to any we have seen before," after the previous one was destroyed in Star Wars: The Last Jedi.
The report claims the starship will display a six-sided dish that looks significantly different from the past one. A mock photo based on the report has been created to give fans an example of how it may appear in Episode IX.
