48 Years Later, An Iconic Star Wars Location Is About To Be Changed Forever

Lucasfilm

When Han, Luke, Leia, Chewie, C-3PO and R2-D2 fled the Death Star, their sanctuary was the hidden Rebel Base on Yavin 4, a moon of a gas giant also called Yavin. Filmed on location in at the ancient Mayan city of Tikal, in Guatemala, we were meant to think that the Alliance had set-up shop in the abandoned temples of an ancient civilization. Yavin 4 has only appeared in two Star Wars movies — A New Hope and Rogue One — but now, in Andor Season 2, we will once again return to that hidden, and very pivotal, little moon.

But no matter what happens in Andor Season 2, our perception of Yavin 4 will be changed forever. And, one scene in the trailer might indicate that this base isn’t as secure as we thought.
