Today at Star Wars Celebration Chicago the Episode IX panel was held and it gave everyone that was waiting in line for hours what they were waiting for: a teaser trailer. Let give you a quick break down of the trailer.
The trailer starts off with Rey in the desert and grabbing Luke’s lightsaber, no longer broken in half, and preparing herself for an oncoming TIE Silencer. As the ship gets closer she starts running in the opposite direction of the ship and then does an incredible flip over the ship with the lightsaber lit and ready for battle.
We next see different clips from the movie:
Poe and Finn on what looks like a desert skiff being shot at by flying(?) Stormtroopers.
Leia and Rey hugging with a tear coming down Rey’s eye.
Kylo Ren running in a forest and taking someone down with the crossbar blade on his lightsaber
Lando piloting the Millennium Falcon with Chewbacca as his co-pilot
BB-8 with his new friend D-O
The band of heros looking over a ridge and staring at the remnants of the Death Star. (Yeah! The DEATHSTAR!)
Then one of the moments that gave everyone chills – hearing the laughter of the Emperor.
After that moment we got the big reveal of the title of the movie: Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker
