Hello and welcome Malthus - what a great idea you have here. I’m not a fan of the ST and TLJ is imo the best of the bunch, so retaining it as the core of the story, with what you have in mind, seems to be the perfect way to approach the trilogy.

What do you have in mind for the opening crawl? How would you describe Rey, to introduce her in a satisfying way?

Poe had a cool arc in TLJ (and no arc at all in TFA, he barely had a personality beyond “hotshot pilot”), so if you could retain some of the lessons Leia teaches him… maybe not have her die? Luke’s moment with her would be retained, and if this is just an epilogue to the OT, with Han’s death I think that’d feel earned.

As for Finn… he has an arc in TFA and his arc in TLJ depends on it. Hm… not sure how you could go around that one.

Looking forward to updates, I hope I can contribute to this in any way possible. As a wise man once said, “we’ll watch your career with great interest!”
