Ever since Star Wars Episode VIII filming in Dubrovnik was confirmed, we were left guessing what location the city will play. There are numerous fan theories and alleged information leaks, but there are no confirmations or even a prevailing opinions among fans about where within Star Wars universe will Dubrovnik find its place.

Good people at StarWarsNewsNet have brought forth a theory that offers the most plausible explanation so far. According to them Dubrovnik is most likely to play a new location, never before seen in Star Wars movies, but the look of which is to be based on the concept art for an “exotic city” that ended up being Takodana in The Force Awakens, but with a completely different look. Still, original concept is quite amazing and the feel of the locations depicted within is similar to what can be accomplished in Dubrovnik. See for yourself.

StarWarsNewsNet people go on to say it is a common practise for an unused concept art to be recycled in movie productions if it can be, and there’s no doubt it would be a shame to waste locations described here.
