The New Star War: The Force Awakens Poster in Here.



With a new trailer arriving on ESPN’s “Monday Night Football” tomorrow along with the start of ticket sales, Lucasfilm and Walt Disney Pictures have released the new Star Wars: The Force Awakens poster, which you can view in the gallery below!

The trailer will debut on Monday, October 19, during halftime of the National Football League (NFL) game between the New York Giants and the Philadelphia Eagles in Philadelphia. The game starts at 5:15 p.m. PDT/8:15 p.m. EDT. Following the trailer launch, tickets to the highly-anticipated cinematic event will be on sale everywhere movie tickets are sold.

Opening in theaters on December 18, 2015, Star Wars: The Force Awakens is set 30 years after the events of Return of the Jedi, and features a new generation of swashbuckling heroes and shadowy villains, as well as the return of fan-favorite smugglers, princesses, and Jedi.

Directed by J.J. Abrams, the highly-anticipated movie stars Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Adam Driver, Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Lupita Nyong’o, Andy Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew and Max Von Sydow. Kathleen Kennedy, J.J. Abrams and Bryan Burk are producing with Tommy Harper and Jason McGatlin serving as executive producers. The screenplay is by Lawrence Kasdan & J.J. Abrams and Michael Arndt.

Agree. As a filmmaker, he's not any better than M. Night Shyamalan Yavin4 Oct 2015 #4

and Death Star, Mark 3?

Interesting that Daisy Ridley's Rey is the most prominent person.

... Seeing the name J.J. Abrams in the credits would be enough for me to give this thing a pass. I've detested everything that man's done, even (maybe especially) those movies where the initial premise seemed very interesting (e.g. Lost, Super 8).

I predict these will suck even harder than the prequels.

The hype on this film is unreal. It's almost like it destined to suck no matter what.
