Sounds like Donnie Yen could be in one of the upcoming Star Wars movies. M.A.A.C. is saying that Apple Daily says Yen has "signed on to appear in STAR WARS – EPISODE 8 as a ‘Jedi’ alongside HARRISON FORD’s ‘Han Solo’." And that filming starts next month. But they also point out that his role could be for Star Wars: Rogue One.

If he is playing a Jedi, then maybe he's in both? I don't know, they've said already that Rogue One won't have any Jedi.
