Star Wars: The Last Jedi rumoured to be the longest Star Wars movie to date at 150 minutes

September 29, 2017 by Gary Collinson

Now that Star Wars: The Last Jedi is complete, it seems we may have an idea of the final run time for the middle chapter of Disney and Lucasfilm’s Sequel Trilogy, and – if accurate – it’s going to be the longest Star Wars movie to date.

According to a listing on the website for the UK cinema chain Cineworld, Star Wars: The Last Jedi will run for 150 minutes in total, topping the previous longest – Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones by eight minutes.

For comparison, Disney’s first two Star Wars movies – Star Wars: The Force Awakens and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story – ran for 135 minutes and 133 minutes respectively.

What do you make of a two-and-a-half hour runtime for The Last Jedi? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below…
