The trailer for Star Wars: Episode VIII The Last Jedi is here

Paul Moore

Star Wars fans, it’s here! The Force is strong with one.

After seeing Darth Vader absolutely annihilate the Rebel Alliance at the end of Rogue One, every Star Wars fan instantly turned their attention towards the next chapter in the world’s most beloved saga.

The wait is over because the first footage for Star Wars: Episode VIII The Last Jedi is finally here.

The Force Awakens absolutely smashed box-office records but we still have so many lingering questions. What happened at Luke’s Jedi Academy? Who are Rey’s parents? What’s the background of Supreme Leader Snoke? Will Rey and Luke become best friends?

We need answers, but to quote Obi-Wan “patience.”

If The Force Awakens thematically mirrored A New Hope, does  this mean that the First Order will strike back in The Last Jedi?

Take a look for yourself.

Having taken her first steps into a larger world in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Rey continues her epic journey with Finn, Poe and Luke Skywalker in the next chapter of the saga. This being said, the dark side of the Force is mobilising as Kylo Ren steps up his training with Supreme Leader Snoke.

It stars, Mark Hamill, Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Adam Driver, Domhnall Gleeson, Carrie, Fisher, Gwendoline Christie, Laura Dern and Benicio del Toro and will hit cinemas on December 15, 2017.

Enjoy!
