Previous reports claim Luke Skywalker has been missing for 30 years since "Return of the Jedi." However, recent speculations suggest the Jedi Master may only be missing for ten years. During his time between "Return of the Jedi" and "Star Wars: Episode VII," Luke supposedly escaped to Yoda's home planet in Dagobah to resist going to the Dark Side of The Force.
Earlier "confirmed" plot details for "Star Wars: Episode VII" from Latino-Review claims the second draft of J.J. Abrams and Lawrence Kasdan's script tells the true fates of Luke Skywalker. Courtesy of shhhh user Mizzlewump, who initially claimed he read the script, fans learned that the Jedi Master has been missing for 30 years. Additionally, the rebel fighter would eventually turn to the Dark Side at the end of the movie.
However, a recent report from This Is Infamous contradicts Luke's disappearance of 30 years. The site claims he has only been missing for the past 10 years. The earlier 20 years were spent rebuilding the Jedi Order after "Return of the Jedi." It is within this duration that Luke Skywalker's command of The Force reportedly got stronger. The site claims he can literally move mountains with a mere glance. Movieweb adds Luke Skywalker's powers can even stop Imperial ships.
Movieweb writer Brian Gallagher claims his strong powers come with a price. Soon Luke Skywalker starts to sense a disturbance in The Force and is slowly being drawn to the Dark Side. This is when he supposedly escapes to Dagobah for a self-imposed exile to resist the temptation. It is reportedly in Dagobah that the Jedi Master is found by old and new friends. The site adds it could be where Daisy Ridley and John Boyega's characters discover him after their search.
Previous rumoured plot details for "Star Wars: Episode VII" mentioned by the International Business Times include a search for the missing Jedi Master. After Daisy Ridley and John Boyega finds a lightsaber held by a severed hand over at Tatooine, they journey off worlds to search for the rightful owner of the Jedi relic. Their search leads them to Han Solo and Chewbacca. Together, they start off in a quest to find Luke Skywalker.
However, Luke Skywalker's fate and whereabouts are all still speculations as LucasFilm or Disney have yet to reveal any details regarding the production of "Star Wars: Episode VII."
