Filmed 4 months after we wrapped principal photography on
#ESB, it wasn't a "re-shoot", it was an added scene. Concerned about the downbeat ending & thorough defeat of the protagonists, they wanted to add an uplifting moment of hope & rejuvenation to reassure the audience.
We could inquire to @HamillHimself about it.
Mark, did you guys re-shoot the Medical Bay scene at the end of Empire after principal photography had already wrapped?
