Star Wars helped Instagram celebrate their new landscape and portrait options on Thursday by unveiling a new Force Awakens teaser trailer!
The brief new Force Awakens preview offers the familiar “there has been an awakening” line and a couple of shots we’ve seen before. However, there are two new previews in this teaser too. Most notably Finn (John Boyega) is seen with a blue lightsaber for the first time. He appears to be going up against Kylo Ren who wields a lightsaber with the controversial crossguard. There are also a couple of great sound effects when Kylo’s lightsaber comes to life. What. Does. It. All. Mean?!
Also noteworthy in this Star Wars teaser trailer is the new shot of Daisy Ridley’s character Rey standing with BB-8 as they look at… something.
In a statement, Disney says this new preview is “the very first video content to be showcased in this new format for the Instagram community.”
Star Wars: The Force Awakens opens in theaters this Christmas. Is this preview a hint that a new trailer is on the horizon? We’ll just have to wait and see…
