Star Wars 9 TV Spot Gives Clear Look At Skywalker Lightsaber Redesign
A new TV spot for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker offers a clear look at the redesign of the Skywalker lightsaber. Having been destroyed during Star Wars: The Last Jedi, the famous lightsaber has been remade for The Rise of Skywalker where it will again be wielded by Rey.
Recent weeks have seen a steady influx of new images and footage from Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker ahead of the film's December release. The marketing has been preparing fans for the end of the Skywalker Saga, of which this particular lightsaber has plays an important role. Originally wielded by Anakin Skywalker in the prequel films, it was handed down to his son, Luke, by Obi-Wan Kenobi in Star Wars: A New Hope. In the sequel trilogy that began with Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the lightsaber is now in the possession of Rey after it came to her hand and not Kylo Ren's in that film's climactic lightsaber duel.
In this latest Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker TV spot, there's a mix of new and previously seen footage. Most notable is the inclusion of a clip in where Leia is holding the reforged Skywalker lightsaber. Judging by her forest surroundings, this moment comes from the same scene of Leia and Rey embracing that's been used in previous trailers. Check out the latest Rise of Skywalker teaser, below:
