Star Wars: The Last Jedi is written and directed by Rian Johnson (Brick, Looper) and continues the storylines introduced in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, welcoming back cast members Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker, the late Carrie Fisher as General Leia Organa, Adam Driver as Kylo Ren, Daisy Ridley as Rey, John Boyega as Finn, Lupita Nyong’o as Maz Kanata, Oscar Isaac as Poe Dameron, Domhnall Gleeson as Hux, Anthony Daniels as C-3PO, Gwendoline Christie as Captain Phasma, and Andy Serkis as Supreme Leader Snoke.
Questions still linger about the mysterious Supreme Leader Snoke from Star Wars: The Force Awakens and the upcoming Star Wars: The Last Jedi, and though director Rian Johnson says we won’t be getting many answers about him, we will be seeing the big man himself in a non-hologram form.
Star Wars: The Last Jedi opens in regular and IMAX theaters on December 15, 2017.
The sequel is produced by Kathleen Kennedy and Ram Bergman and executive produced by J.J. Abrams, Jason McGatlin, and Tom Karnowski.
