A Behind-the-Scenes video released for TLJ !
30th July 2017 |
In mid July, LFL revealed a Behind-the-Scenes trailer for Episode VIII : The Last Jedi ! SWNN was among many that provided a breakdown and analysis based on what (little) we know so far.
Some of the BTS nuggets....
Seeing the Ahch-To avian Porgs ;
Kylo Ren duelling [training ?] against stave wielders ;
Rey blocking 3 blades / staves with her one sword ;
Rey, Finn, Poe, and Rose grouped together on a set ;
Chewie (with bowcaster ?!) in what appears to be the Alliance's bridge / conference set ;
Seeing the Canto Bight horse creature - the Falfar ?? ;
A brief glimpse of Maz Kanata actress Lupita N'Ongyo !
A brief glimpse of Laura Dern as Admiral Hondo ;
A star destroyer bridge exploding ;
Rose sat near the ramp of the Falcon ;
Finn and Rey together on Crait ;
Not much if any was revealed about the plot - other than re-confirming what little we know - but of note were Daisy Ridley's comments that this episode adds surprises, details, and depth to the existing story, and Carrie Fisher noting that it was (unsurprisingly !!) about family.

In concurrent 'Young Han Solo' news, new director Ron Howard has teased us with a series of new stills from the set, akin to the 'George Lucas Selects' series during the production of Attack of the Clones. These images have ranged from glimpsing TWO Wookiees together (Chewie and another ?), to two shots of Glover as a young Lando Calrissian in the Millennium Falcon's cockpit ; in addition, some additional leaked pictures from the set showed Han and Chewie arriving in some sort of museum or office - or both !
Furthermore, the music composer was also officially announced as John Powell, who has scored for movies such as 'How to Train your Dragon', 'Shrek', and 'Bourne'.
