From the get-go the two minute teaser showcases special effects and live-action scenes that the Oscar winning film series is known for, no doubt utilising every cent of the film’s $200 million budget.
Released today, the preview ends with a very familiar image, Harrison Ford’s character Han Solo standing beside his woolly friend Chewbacca as he fondly remarks: “Chewie, we’re home”.
The newest addition to the franchise is set 30 years after The Return of the Jedi and focuses on its young stars.
British actress Daisy Ridley plays Rey, a scavenger who is rumoured to be the daughter of Han Solo and Princess Leia.
The world’s most infamous villain turn father, Darth Vader appears and we get a glimpse of his burnt mask being held.
The blockbuster, directed by J.J Abrahams will be released this Christmas.
