STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI
Rian Johnson and the cast of Episode VIII reveal the secrets of the Force…
I said to Rian, ‘You can’t catch lightning in a bottle over again. Truth be known, I’m terrified,’” Mark Hamill announces to a capacity crowd during the four-day Star Wars Celebration get-together in Orlando. “You know what he said? ‘So am I.’ Now, that’s a director I can love.”
While terror is in short supply thanks to the absence of Adam Driver’s Han Solo-slayer, there’s ample love to go around during Celebration’s Star Wars: The Last Jedi panel. Hosted by Josh Gad, whose Instagram interrogation of Daisy Ridley earned him a seat on the most exciting stage in the galaxy, Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy and writer/director Rian Johnson are on hand to welcome some familiar faces – and a brand new one – to Orlando, while giving us an ewok-sized glimpse of the next entry in the Skywalker saga.
