Trailer for 'Star Wars: The Last Jedi' finally here

Disney has released the very first trailer and poster for episode eight of the Star Wars saga, "The Last Jedi", at Star Wars Celebration, a fan festival in Orlando.

Eight months away from its cinema release, we have the first few clues about "Star Wars: The Last Jedi", via a trailer that has been eagerly awaited by fans of the saga dreamt up by George Lucas forty years ago.

Slated for release on December 15 in the US, the eighth episode of the saga was directed by Rian Johnson ("Looper"). Daisy Ridley, John Boyega and Adam Driver, the stars of the new trilogy which began in 2015 with "The Force Awakens", will all be returning for this sequel, alongside long-standing cast members Mark Hamill and Carrie Fischer, who play the twins Luke and Leia Skywalker. Benicio del Toro and Laura Dern will also feature.
