‘People keep telling me they know me,’ she says. ‘No one does.”
To which Kylo replies, ‘I do’
Then we cut to old favourite C3PO bidding what appears to be a final farewell to his friends, in scenes that are likely to have even the hardest Star Wars fan reaching for the tissues.
But the biggest thrill is left for the end, when we see Rey and Kylo destroy what appears to be a Darth Vader shrine, possibly featuring his armour, and we hear the voice of Emperor Palpatine, who seemingly died a very final death in Return of The Jedi.
Whatever happened to him after he plummeted down that reactor shaft, it seems he is very much back from dead, and again causing trouble for the galaxy.
But there is hope, with the voice of the recently deceased Luke Skywalker affirming, ‘Confronting fear is the destiny of the Jedi.’
Will good prevail over evil? You’ll have to wait until December to find out. But in the meantime, let’s watch the trailer again.
