The "Star Wars: Episode 7" version of the Millennium Falcon was seen in new photos leaked Tuesday, according to reports. The iconic starship of Han Solo is being built at unknown location in the U.K., and Star Wars enthusiasts are already speculating as to how the cruiser could have a part in the latest film.

The "Stars Wars: Episode 7" Millennium Falcon was spotted half-built in what appears to be a large hangar that is used to design a variety of different set pieces for the next installment of the science fiction series. The very recognizable bulge on the right side of the ship can be clearly seen even though the Millennium Falcon isn't fully completed.

"At first glance, it looked like run-of-the-mill set pieces ... until one of our top 'Star Wars' nerds in the office spotted the legendary Millennium Falcon in mid-construction -- at least that's how it looks," TMZ, who obtained the photos, reported.

In the background of the picture is what looks like an X-wing, one of the ships used to defeat Darth Vader's infamous Death Star.

The pictures were apparently taken in the fall of last year before the completed set pieces were transported to Pinewood Studios, where the film is shot, according to ScreenCrush.com.

The "Star Wars Episode 7" plot will feature an arc that features the son of Han Solo and Princess Leia that will be played by Adam Driver, according to JediNews.

"Sounds like Adam Driver is not going to play a villain… sort of," wrote the site. "He will be playing the son of Han and Leia, and it seems he will be seduced to the Dark Side and a main plot point for the movie will be their attempt to rescue him."
