The official Star Wars Twitter account shared one final short trailer for Star Wars: The Last Jedi yesterday, commemorating “VIII days” until the movie’s premiere. It’s only 30 seconds long, and it’s in that infuriating social video aspect ratio, but the new teaser does include some perplexing new material.
While the new spot uses a fair bit of footage we’ve seen in previous trailers, there are a handful of new shots—one of them quite provocative for the types of fans who revel in speculation and theories. So if you want to go into each shot fresh, watch before reading. And if you want to go into the movie totally fresh, don’t watch the trailer at all.
Trailer details
In this trailer, we get several more shots of Poe Dameron in action behind the throttle of his X-Wing—they comprise the majority of what’s new here. But we also get a glimpse at a stormtrooper preparing what looks like an energy axe, for lack of a better term.
