Star Wars Celebration kicked off its second day with an incredible panel about Rian Johnson’s The Last Jedi, which saw the release of the film’s first poster and trailer. Host Josh Gad brought in several cast members from the upcoming movie, with never-before-seen images of their characters on display on a massive screen above the stage.
The new images not only gave fans a first look at returning characters such as Luke Skywalker, Rey and Kylo Ren along with Captain Phasma and General Hux, but also one of the newcomers: Rose, played by Kelly Marie Tran. You can see them below.
