Chewbacca's co-pilot for the Millenium Falcon has been revealed in an image of the new "Star Wars" trading card.
Located in Vulture, the trading card game featured Chewbacca in dominant brown hue, with tinges of black and white. The character is also seen the bottom left part of the character inside the iconic spacecraft, along with Rey, who is played by "Lifesaver" actress Daisy Ridley.
With the revelation inscribed in the trading card, it is assumed that Rey would follow the path of Lando Calrissian and Nien Numb, as per Vulture. The publication added that seeing Rey flying the Millenium Falcon in the card had ignited questions about her possible familial relationship with the Han Solo as well as the latter's whereabouts.
While the card sees Chewbacca and Rey flying the Millenium Falcon, it did not mean that the latter was the one flying the aircraft in the trailer, as per Cinema Blend. The publication also added that it was not the first time fans had seen Rey in control on Solo's aircraft. During the San Diego Comic-Con in July, fans had seen Ridley and Mayhew seated exactly where there were in the new image.
Meanwhile, fans are set to see "Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens," which is set 30 years after the events in the "Return of Jedi." It stars an ensemble of both old and new heroes and villains played by Ridley, Oscar Isaac, Hamill, Max von Sydow, Simon Pegg, Domhnall Gleeson, John Boyega, Gwendoline Christie, Adam Driver, Carrie Fisher, and Harrison Ford, among others.
Abrams' "Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens" hits theaters on Dec. 18 while Gareth Edawrds's "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story" premieres on Dec. 16, 2016. Meanwhile, Johnson's "Star Wars: Episode VIII" is slated to premiere in theaters on May 26, 2017 while Colin Trevorrow's "Star Wars: Episode IX" premieres in 2019.
