Master Jedi Luke Skywalker is front and center in the final poster for “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” that was unveiled by Lucasfilm on Monday.
“The Last Jedi,” as the eighth numbered-entry in the “Star Wars” saga, picks up where “The Force Awakens” left off after the franchise took a diversion in 2016 with “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.”
It hits theaters Dec. 15.

Director Rian Johnson stopped by Twitter’s #WhatsHappening show to unveil the poster.
“The tricky thing with a poster like this is when you have to fit this many folks on it. How do you do that in a way that is elegant?” Johnson said. The director added that Carrie Fisher was wearing his favorite Leia costume from the film. “I wanted her to just look fabulous in this movie.”
“The Last Jedi” stars Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Kelly Marie Tran, Mark Hamill and Carrie Fisher. It’s written and directed by Rian Johnson and produced by Kathleen Kennedy and Ram Bergman and executive produced by J.J. Abrams, Jason McGatlin and Tom Karnowski.
