I had considered the night scene of Theed from the end of Episode 1. For Geonosis, the cliff scene overlooking the hive when Obi-Wan arrives. Takodana, take the clip in TFA of Maz’s castle with all the flags and Utapau can be from some of the trailers. Either the night scene of the Stormtroopers on the walkers or day scene before the battle begins could work for Kashyyyk. Idk if you would want any TCW planets.

I think Coruscant, Takodanna, Kashyyyk and Theed make the most sense, the population of Geonosis is extremely low after Death Star experiments theres nothing really left there at all.

I haven’t looked at the footage from Solo, but Corellia would be a good one, story-wise. I don’t know that Geonosis would thematically work. Jakku doesn’t even really fit as it’s not really a populous place being freed from tyranny either… but it’s there for Rey.

Coreilla would definitely work, Kessel too on that note. But I think Geonosis would be good and logically wouldn’t the First Order attempt to take it for the same reason that the Empire did?

The Empire stripped it of its resources, so I can’t imagine the First Order needing time claim it again. With Kessel, we only have live-action footage of the mines, not the cities.

Personally, I feel like the scene should be about people becoming free more than places; Geonosis and Kessel (and Jakku) aren’t populated places, just recognisable places. It’s supposed to be about liberation of people, y’know?
