NEW TRAILER STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS “The Force. It’s Calling To You”

“Nothing will stand in our way….I will finish what you started…”
“The Dark Side….The Jedi…..They’re real. The Force…it’s calling to you-just let it in.”
When a ruthless prince rises to power and threatens galactic peace, a runaway soldier, an uncongenial scavenger, and a hot shot pilot find their fates intertwined as they embark on a journey to find the most powerful warrior in the galaxy. And now the newest trailer from Star Wars: The Force Awakens:
A continuation of the saga created by George Lucas set thirty years after Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi. Opening in theaters everywhere Dec. 18, The Episode VII story will feature the forces of the First Order, an offshoot of the Galactic Empire, aligned against the Resistance, sprung from the Rebel Alliance. The story material will not be based on Star Wars Legends, formerly known as the Expanded Universe, rather, it will be an original story set after Return of the Jedi. The film stars Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Peter Mayhew, Anthony Daniels, and Kenny Baker reprising their original roles. The original actors are joined by a host of new actors including John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, and Adam Driver, amongst many others. The film will be presented in RealD 3D and IMAX 3D where available.
To commence the countdown to the movie release, yesterday Lucasfilm released the Star Wars: The Force Awakens poster worldwide. Tonight, tickets to the highly anticipated cinematic event will be on sale everywhere movie tickets are sold.
Check out the list below to see how some theaters will be celebrating this momentous occasion with special events and exclusive giveaways.
