It is believed the film will focus on what's been going on with Luke Skywalker, one of the biggest characters in the series.

The Last Jedi will take place directly after the events of 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens', which ended with Rey (Daisy Ridley) finding Luke. Will Luke be the last Jedi in the title?

Star Wars: The Last Jedi will be released on 15 December 2017.
