Surprise! It’s your birthday, Star Wars<\/em> fans, so happy birthday!<\/p>\n

The first teaser trailer for Star Wars: Episode IX<\/em> was finally<\/em> released on Friday after months of anticipation. Oh yeah, and so was the title: The name of the new film is Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The movie is the epic conclusion to the third trilogy in the hit sci-fi franchise and stars returning actors Daisy Ridley<\/a><\/strong> as new Jedi and heroine and Resistance leader Rey, Adam Driver<\/a><\/strong> as her nemesis and now-Supreme Leader of the First Order Kylo Ren, John Boyega<\/a><\/strong> as her friend and former stormtrooper Finn, and Oscar Isaac<\/a><\/strong> as Resistance pilot Poe.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

In the trailer, Rey appears in the desert, wearing a white version of her scavenger\/Jedi outfit. She turns on her blue lightsaber and runs as Kylo’s TIE silencer chases her then takes a giant leap. Kylo is later shown wielding his red lightsaber in battle.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Rey is later seen standing on a cliff with Finn, Poe, C-3PO, Chewbacca and BB-8, watching a scene of destruction.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

In addition, the movie will also feature never-before-seen footage of the late Carrie Fisher<\/a><\/strong> as Leia, plus the return of Star Wars <\/em>veteran Billy Dee Williams<\/strong> as Lando Calrissian as well as Mark Hamill<\/a><\/strong> as Jedi master Luke Skywalker.<\/p>\n

Lando and Chewbacca are seen in the Millennium Falcon, and Leia is seen hugging Rey.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“We’ll always be with you,” Luke says. “No one’s ever really gone.”<\/p>\n

The trailer ends with maniacal laughter.<\/p>\n

The trailer and title, which contains blue lettering, were revealed at a panel for Star Wars: Episode IX<\/em> at the the Star Wars Celebrations event in Chicago and then released online.<\/p>\n

After the trailer was screened, Ian McDiarmid<\/strong>, who played Emperor Palpatine in the first two trilogies, then walked onstage, confirming the laughter in the footage came from him.<\/p>\n

“Roll it again,” he said in his menacing voice, and the trailer was screened a second time.<\/p>\n

Most the main cast of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker<\/em>, minus Driver, attended the panel. Droids R2-D2 and BB-8 made appearances as well, as did director J.J. Abrams<\/a><\/strong>, who introduced the audience to BB-8’s new fellow droid friend, D-0.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n

Stephen Colbert<\/a><\/strong> was the moderator.<\/p>\n

He grilled the cast on spoilers and asked Ridley about the future of Rey and Kylo’s relationship.<\/p>\n

“I guess the Kylo and Rey thing, we’ll have to wait and see,” Ridley replied.<\/p>\n

Colbert asked her if fans can expect to see more Force visions of Kylo semi-naked, joking, “Let’s sell some tickets right now.”<\/p>\n

“I think I can confirm there are no more semi-naked Kylos, unfortunately,” she said.<\/p>\n

“Only full. Only full naked,” Isaac joked. “We had to take it up a notch, guys.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Star Wars: Episode IX<\/em> is set for release on December 20.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
