Here’s your first look at ‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’

He seems to be training her there but we hear a contradictory message from Luke at the end saying, “It’s time for the Jedi to end.” We catch glimpses of Finn in a pod, some big battles, and Poe Dameron running to his fighter which is suddenly caught in an explosion. There’s just enough action and suspense to keep us excited for the movie’s release on December 15th.
