This is the moment fans around the world have been waiting for. The first trailer for J.J. Abrams' "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" has been released along with five new images. Although the title doesn't mention what episode it is, it's Episode VII in the series, a sequel to the original trilogy and it will take place 22 years after the events from "Return of the Jedi". The plot is a mystery so far and the teaser only features an ominous narration by Andy Serkis which is wonderfully cryptic. I suppose we'll witness yet another return of the Sith. The trailer also gives us a first look at the Millennium Falcon evading some TIE Fighters, a somewhat new X-Wing charging into battle and a rather impractical Sith lightsaber design. The sequel stars John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac, Andy Serkis, Lupita Nyong’o, Gwendoline Christie, Crystal Clarke, Pip Andersen, Domhnall Gleeson, Max von Sydow, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew and Kenny Baker.
"Star Wars: The Force Awakens" opens in theaters on December 18th, 2015.
