There was talk of trying to make Passana into Jedha at one point. Though I think that was decided against because the major recognizable marker from Rogue One was destroyed so there’d really be no way to make it clear that is what was going on.

Some months ago I did a quick mock-up to sum up the ideas that were suggested:

  • Use a shot from a Rogue One trailer as part of the establishing sequence.
  • Rescoring the arrival scene with the Jedha theme from Rogue One
  • Recolor the desert to an orange/reddish tone.

VFX would be needed for adding a huge crater on the Jedha surface as seen from space, (maybe but not that necessary) a ring of debris orbiting the planet, and erasing the U-Wing and adding in the Millennium Falcon instead.

But honestly the hardest part of turning Pasaana into Jedha is that the name of the planet is mentioned in dialogue. One of those instances (a FO officer reporting to Kylo) could be redubbed as her mouth is away from view, but Rey saying “Pasaana” before embarking on the journey seems more difficult to change.
