Star Wars nerds might be going bonkers right about now! Because we certainly have lost our cool. The first teaser as well as poster of The Last Jedi is out and it is epic. Though we weren't completely blown away by the teaser (atleast the beginning wasn't that happening) but it has definitely got us hooked. We can't wait for the trailer but right now, we're going to talk about the poster. Damn, take a deep breath and just look at this poster. It is every bit dark and quite honestly, makes us miss Vader a lot. For the fandom aware of Star Wars, you obviously know that Kylo is actually Luke Skywalker's nephew and while there is speculation that Rey is related to Luke himself, we can't guarantee that until the movie release.
Anyway, so yeah, in the poster, we see how Luke (Mark Hamill) and Kylo's (Adam Driver) intense gazes leave the whole canvas bloodied up (with red, the Dark side). However, there's Rey (Daisy Ridley), taking centrestage as she unleashes her light saber. Interestingly, her saber's light cuts through Luke and Kylo but there's a bit of Darkness as it closes in on their faces. See closely. It holds a bit of symbolism that she is the chosen one to defeat the Dark. But didn't Luke say in the teaser that it is the end of Jedi? Check out the poster below.

For all those who haven't watched the teaser, you can check it out in the link attached above. Believe us, it's epic shiz! Maybe it's not as intriguing or mindblowing as Thor: Ragnarok's (I know, stupid comparison but still not over Marvel's superhero teaser trailer!), but it surely brings back the excitement for the eighth episode. The teaser and poster was released in Colorado during the 40th celebration of SW. Present were Mark Hamill, Daisy Ridley, the makers and yes, surprisingly, Harrison Ford too! This is the first time in all these years that the actor attended any Star Wars event. Well, thank you for doing that Ford.
