Director Rian Johnson says you might want to avoid the Star Wars: The Last Jedi trailer

October 9, 2017 by Gary Collinson

We’re just a few short hours away from the release of the second trailer for Star Wars: The Last Jedi, and director Rian Johnson has taken the unusual step of advising fans to give it a miss, particularly if they want to go into the movie spoiler-free. Johnson took to social media to post the following…

The first trailer gave very little away, so judging by Johnson’s comments, this next one may go down a different route and could potentially feature a few details and/or reveals that some fans would prefer to experience for the first time this coming December. Still, you’d have to imagine it’s pretty unlikely we’re going to get anything like a Rey’s parents reveal, and there’s probably a good hundred million or so deaf ears this advice will be falling on either way…
