ROGUE ONE: WHEN LONDON BECAME SCARIF!

No sign of any train at this site!

A busy hub for Docklands commuters, the Canary Wharf London Underground station's modern, high-tech environs would also make for an excellent addition to the Star Wars universe in its second 'fantasy life' as an Imperial communications base on the jungle world of Scarif. A dream come true location to film in (under swift top secret conditions) for director Gareth Edwards back in 2015, for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story....

In between takes for Alan Tudyk, Felicity Jones and Diego Luna, during the filming of the ultimately deleted scene escape from the base.

A happy Gareth Edwards awaits the next phase of quick filming on site, alongside Alan Tudyk.

The Stormtroopers other Imperials get ready.


Rogue One: How Star Wars Filmed in Public Without Anyone Noticing

I see that Mister Edwards has even managed to sneak in some more Canary Wharf filming with his all-new upcoming sci-fi/action epic from Fox, The Creator, which looks like an exciting blockbuster this September, 2023.
