The first teaser trailer for "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" arrived online in April 2017, but it revealed little details about the storyline and cast members. However, a new promotional ad released last night that hints at some of the developments in the movie.
The ad is produced by a Japanese production house and translated into English, Japanese, Chinese, and other languages, to attract more and more fans. The ad was created for the film's Japanese release and can be found on YouTube. While it doesn’t reveal much of the project, it does suggest that there will be lots of twists in "Star Wars: The Last Jedi."
From the clip, it is evident that the movie explores new generation character titled Han Solo.
He is caught in a distant galaxy, where the heroine, Rey, forces him to accomplish a difficult mission. Will Han Solo meet the Skywalker in the end? Well, we cannot say anything in this regard as there’s no official information.
The casting details revealed
In addition to the plot, the new clip hints at the main characters of "The Last Jedi." The film features Carrie Fishes as Organa, Mark Hamill as Luke, Lupita Nyong’o as Poe, Adam Driver as Ren, John Boyega as Finn, Oscar Isaac as Dameron, Kelly Marie as Rose, Andy Serkis as Snoke, Gwendoline Christie as Pharma, and Anthony Daniels as C-3PO.
Other cast members are Laura Dern, Benicio del Toro, Joonas Suotamo, Peter Mayhew, Timothy Rose, Mike Quinn, Billie Lourd, and Simon Pegg.
