Luke reunites with the Falcon in Last Jedi TV spot

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Let this sink in: We are in the last full month before STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI comes out. Do you suddenly feel lightheaded? Yeah, that’s because half your brain just exploded out of your skull. It’s been a long two years, and though ROGUE ONE gave us company, the main story of Rey (Daisy Ridley), Finn (John Boyega), Kylo Ren (Adam Driver), Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) and more is what we really want to see. To celebrate how much closer we’re getting, the first TV spot for the movie has been put out and there’s plenty of new footage to fawn over, including Luke’s reacquainting with the Millennium Falcon. Now, pick up your brain chunks, because you’re going to need them to process all the emotion.

There's a lot of good stuff here, including that final image of Rey raising her lightsaber to Luke. And in the rain! What the hell is going on there? But, of course, there's nothing spoiler-y, which is great because more so than FORCE AWAKENS I want to go in fresh as I can for this flick. The reveals and evolutions in the story will be far greater and stronger than last time, so if I can leave the theater with my mouth agape from shock, then I'll know I had a good time.

STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI arrives December 15.
