On Jakku, he was stood near[1] Venalo Wintz and the droid KT-310[3] when he witnessed the scavenger Rey knocking the First Order deserter Finn after chasing him through Niima Outpost with the astromech droid BB-8 who had accused Finn of being a thief.

Behind the scenes

Monn Tatth first appeared in the film Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens, which was released in 2015. The actor playing the character was uncredited and the character did not receive a name in the film,[1] but was identified by the video game LEGO Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which was released in conjunction with the film.[3] Despite the game being non-canon, story group member Pablo Hidalgo confirmed on Twitter that the names provided by the game for previously unidentified characters, including Tatth, were considered canon.[4]
