We are one with the Force today! The official Star Wars: The Last Jedi teaser has been released and it is incredibly exciting! Let’s take a look:
Wow, wow, wow. This looks fantastic. Obviously, Rey’s training is going to be a main focus however, there’s so much else going on. Was that a flashback of Luke’s academy burning? Is Finn going to fully recover from his injuries? These questions and more are burning at the forefront of my mind. That said, I definitely feel that Kylo Ren’s growth is going to be just as important, if not a complete reciprocal, of Rey’s development. In addition to this trailer, take a look at the official poster:
