The trailer delves deeper into the plot of the film while still not giving too much away. Highlights include villainous Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) saying "nothing will stand in our way" to the decomposed helmet of Darth Vader and multiple shots of lightsaber fights. We also see cameos from Han Solo (Harrison Ford) and Leia (Carrie Fisher), with gorgeous cinematography.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens is the seventh film in the Star Wars film series. It will take place about 30 years after Return of the Jedi, the third film in the series, which has since become known as Episode VI. The plot of The Force Awakens has been shrouded in secrecy since pre-production.

The blockbuster is directed by J.J. Abrams (Star Trek, Lost) and written by Abrams and Lawrence Kasdan, who also co-wrote The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.
