Star Wars: The Last Jedi (also known as Star Wars: Episode VIII – The Last Jedi) is a 2017
American epic space opera film written and directed by Rian Johnson. It is the second film in the Star
Wars sequel trilogy, following Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015). The film is produced
by Lucasfilm and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures. It stars Mark Hamill, Carrie
Fisher, Adam Driver, Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Andy Serkis, Lupita Nyong'o, Domhnall
Gleeson, Anthony Daniels, and Gwendoline Christie in returning roles, with Kelly Marie Tran, Laura
Dern, and Benicio del Toro joining the cast. It also marks the final performance of Fisher, who died in
December 2016, with the film being dedicated in her memory. The plot follows Rey as she receives Jedi
training from Luke Skywalker in hopes of turning the tide for the Resistance in the continued fight
against Kylo Ren and the First Order.
The film was announced after Disney's acquisition of Lucasfilm in October 2012. It is produced by
Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy and Ram Bergman, with Force Awakens director J. J.
Abrams acting as an executive producer. John Williams, composer for the previous seven films, returns
to compose the score. Scenes that required shooting at Skellig Michael in Ireland were filmed during pre-
production in September 2015, with principal photography beginning at Pinewood Studios in England in
February 2016 and ending in July 2016. Post-production wrapped in September 2017.[6]
The Last Jedi had its world premiere in Los Angeles on December 9, 2017, and was released in the
United States on December 15, 2017. The film has grossed $573 million worldwide and received largely
positive reviews. Critics praised it for its plot, ensemble cast, action scenes, visual effects, musical score
and emotional weight; some considered it the best film of the franchise since The Empire Strikes
Back.[7][8][9][10][11] A sequel, provisionally titled Star Wars: Episode IX, is scheduled for release on December
20, 2019.

Plot
Resistance fighters led by General Leia Organa evacuate their base when a First Order fleet arrives.
Following an effective but costly counterattack led by Poe Dameron, the Resistance vessels jump into
hyperspace to escape, but the First Order pursues them using a tracking device. Kylo Ren, Leia's son,
destroys the Resistance support fighters, but hesitates to fire at the lead Resistance ship after sensing
his mother's presence. TIE fighters destroy the bridge of the ship, killing several Resistance leaders and
incapacitating Leia, leaving Vice Admiral Holdo in command. Disapproving of Holdo's passive strategy,
Poe, Finn, BB-8, and mechanic Rose Tico embark on a secret plan to disable the tracking device.
Meanwhile, Rey has arrived on remote Ahch-To with Chewbacca and R2-D2 aboard the Millennium
Falcon to recruit Luke Skywalkerto the Resistance. Disillusioned by the failures of the Jedi, Luke initially
refuses, even after learning of Han Solo's death. Unbeknownst to Luke, Rey and Kylo begin
communicating with each other through telepathic visions. Prompted by R2-D2, Luke eventually agrees
to teach Rey the ways of the Force. Luke and Kylo give Rey differing accounts of the incident that turned
Kylo to the dark side, with Luke confessing that he momentarily contemplated killing Kylo upon sensing
that Supreme Leader Snoke had corrupted him, causing Kylo to destroy Luke's emergent Jedi Order in
retaliation. Convinced that Kylo can still be redeemed, Rey leaves Ahch-To to confront Kylo without
Luke. Luke prepares to burn down the Ahch-To Jedi temple and library, but he encounters Yoda's Force
ghost, who destroys the temple himself and encourages Luke to learn from his failure.
Holdo reveals her plan to discreetly evacuate the remaining Resistance members using small transports.
Believing her actions to be cowardly and risky, Poe instigates a mutiny. Finn, Rose and BB-8 travel to
Canto Bight and acquire the help of the hacker DJ, who says he is able to help them disable the tracking
device. They infiltrate Snoke's ship, but are captured by Captain Phasma, though BB-8 manages to
escape. Meanwhile, Rey lands on the ship, and Kylo brings her to Snoke, who reveals that he controlled
the mental connection between her and Kylo as part of a plan to destroy Luke. Ordered to kill Rey, Kylo
instead kills Snoke and works together with Rey to kill Snoke's guards. Kylo invites Rey to rule the
galaxy with him, but Rey refuses. Using the Force, they struggle for possession of Anakin Skywalker's
lightsaber, which splits in two.
A recovered Leia stuns Poe, allowing the evacuation to begin. Holdo remains on the ship to mislead
Snoke's fleet as all others attempt to flee to a nearby old Rebel Alliance base on Crait. However, DJ
reveals the Resistance's plan to the First Order, and the evacuation transports are targeted with heavy
losses; Holdo sacrifices herself by ramming Snoke's fleet at lightspeed to stop the barrage. Rey escapes
in the chaos, while Kylo declares himself new Supreme Leader. BB-8 frees Finn and Rose, who escape
after defeating Captain Phasma, and join the survivors of the evacuation on Crait. When the First Order
arrives, Poe, Finn, and Rose lead a charge with old speeders. Rey draws the TIE fighters away with
the Falcon, while Rose saves Finn from a suicide run against the main enemy cannon, which blasts a
hole in the Resistance fortress.
Luke appears and confronts Kylo alone so that the surviving Resistance fighters can escape. Kylo orders
the First Order forces to fire on Luke to no effect, then engages Luke in battle himself. Kylo strikes Luke
with his lightsaber, only to learn that he has been fighting Luke's Force projection. Luke defiantly tells
Kylo that he will not be the last Jedi, while Rey uses the Force to help the remaining Resistance fighters
escape via the Falcon. Back on Ahch-To, an exhausted Luke peacefully dies and becomes one with the
Force. Leia reassures everyone that the rebellion has all that is needed to rise again. On Canto Bight,
one of the children that helped Finn and Rose escape grabs a broom with the Force and gazes hopefully
up into space.

Production
Development
See also: Star Wars sequel trilogy

Writer and director Rian Johnson

In October 2012, Star Wars creator George Lucas sold his production company Lucasfilm, and with it
the Star Wars franchise, to The Walt Disney Company. Disney announced a new trilogy of Star
Wars films.[46] J. J. Abrams was named director of the first episode in the trilogy, The Force Awakens, in
January 2013.[47][48] In June 2014, director Rian Johnson was reported to be in talks to write and direct its
sequel, dubbed Episode VIII, and to write a treatment for the third film, Episode IX, with Ram
Bergman producing both films.[49][50] Johnson confirmed in August 2014 that he would direct Episode
VIII.[51] In September, filmmaker Terry Gilliam asked Johnson about what it felt like to take over
something that was made famous by another filmmaker, to which Johnson responded:
I'm just starting into it, but so far, honestly, it's the most fun I've ever had writing. It's just joyous. But also
for me personally, I grew up not just watching those movies but playing with those toys, so as a little kid,
the first movies I was making in my head were set in this world. A big part of it is that direct connection,
almost like an automatic jacking back into childhood in a weird way. But I don't know, ask me again in a
few years and we'll be able to talk about that.[52]
According to Johnson, the story begins immediately after the last scene of The Force Awakens.[41] He
had his story group watch films such as Twelve O'Clock High, The Bridge on the River Kwai, Gunga
Din, Three Outlaw Samurai, Sahara, and Letter Never Sent for inspiration while developing ideas.[41][53] He
felt it was difficult to work on the film while The Force Awakens was being finished.[41]
In December 2015, Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy stated that "we haven't mapped out every
single detail [of the sequel trilogy] yet". She said that Abrams was collaborating with Johnson and that
Johnson would in turn work with (then) Episode IX director Colin Trevorrow to ensure a smooth
transition.[54] Abrams is an executive producer along with Jason McGatlin and Tom
Karnowski.[55] Lucasfilm announced the film's title, Star Wars: The Last Jedi, on January 23, 2017.[56]
Casting
In September 2015, Disney shortlisted the female cast members to Gina Rodriguez, Tatiana Maslany,
and Olivia Cooke.[57] Later that month, Benicio del Toro confirmed that he would play the villain in the
film,[58] and Mark Hamill was also confirmed.[12] In October 2015, Gugu Mbatha-Raw was rumored to have
been cast in the film.[59] In November, Jimmy Vee was cast as R2-D2.[36] In November, Kennedy
announced at the London premiere for The Force Awakens that the entire cast would return for Episode
VIII, along with "a handful" of new cast members.[13] In February 2016, at the start of filming, it was
confirmed that Laura Dern and Kelly Marie Tran had been cast in unspecified roles.[2] In April 2017,
at Star Wars Celebration Orlando, Lucasfilm announced that Tran plays Resistance maintenance worker
Rose Tico, which Johnson described as the film's largest new role.[24][25] To maintain Frank Oz's return as
Yoda a secret, producers excluded Oz's name in the billing for the film's marketing and ensured that Oz
stay on set during filming.[27]
Filming

Skellig Michael, one of the film's main locations

Location filming took place at the Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia

Filming took place on the streets of Dubrovnik

Second unit photography began during pre-production at Skellig Michael in Ireland on September 14,
2015, due to the difficulties of filming at that location during other seasons. It would have lasted four
days,[60][61][62] but filming was canceled for the first day due to poor weather and rough conditions.[63] In
November 2014, Ivan Dunleavy, chief executive of Pinewood Studios, confirmed that the film would be
shot at Pinewood,[64] with filming also occurring in Mexico.[21] In September 2015, del Toro revealed that
principal photography would begin in March 2016;[58] however, Kennedy later stated that filming would
begin in January 2016.[13] The production began work on the 007 Stage at Pinewood Studios on
November 15, 2015.[65] Rick Heinrichs served as production designer.[66]
In January 2016, production of Episode VIII was delayed until February 2016, due to script
rewrites.[67] Additionally, filming was potentially in danger of being delayed further due to an upcoming
strike between the Producers Alliance for Cinema and Television and the Broadcasting, Entertainment,
Cinematograph and Theatre Union.[68] On February 10, 2016, Disney CEO Bob Iger confirmed that
principal photography had begun,[69] under the working title Space Bear.[41] Additional filming took place
in Dubrovnik from March 9 to 16, 2016,[70][71] as well as in Ireland in May.[72] Malin Head in County
Donegal and a mountain headland, Ceann Sibeal in County Kerry, served as additional filming
locations.[73] Location filming for the battle scenes on the planet Crait took place in July 2016 at the Salar
de Uyuni salt flats in Bolivia.[74]
Principal photography wrapped on July 22, 2016,[75] though as of early September 2016, Nyong'o had not
filmed her scenes.[76] In February 2017, it was announced that sequences from the film were shot
in IMAX.[77] Production designer Rick Heinrichs said the original screenplay called for 160 sets, double
what might be expected, but that Johnson did some "trimming and cutting". Ultimately 125 sets were
created on 14 sound stages at Pinewood Studios.[78]
According to creature designer Neal Scanlan, "[t]here are more practical effects in this film than any Star
Wars film", as the film implements 180 to 200 creatures created with practical effects, some of which
were cut from the final edit.[79] For Yoda's appearance in the film as a Force ghost, the character was
created using puppetry, as was done in the original Star Wars trilogy (as opposed to computer-
generated imagery, which was used to create Yoda in most of the prequel trilogy).[80]
Music
Main article: Star Wars: The Last Jedi (soundtrack)
In July 2013, Kennedy announced at Star Wars Celebration Europe that John Williams would return to
score the Star Wars sequel trilogy.[1][81] At a Tanglewood concert in August 2016, Williams confirmed he
was scheduled to start scoring Episode VIII.[82] Williams said he would begin recording the score "off and
on" in December 2016 until March or April 2017.[83] On February 21, 2017, it was confirmed that
recording was underway, with Williams conducting.[84]

Release
In January 2015, Disney CEO Bob Iger stated that Episode VIII would be released in 2017,[85] and in
March, Lucasfilm announced a release date of May 26, 2017.[86][87] In January 2016, The Last Jedi was
rescheduled for December 15, 2017 in 3D and IMAX 3D.[55][88] On January 23, 2017, the film's title was
announced as Star Wars: The Last Jedi.[56] Similarly to The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the
Jedi and The Force Awakens, "Episode VIII" was included in the film's opening crawl, although not in its
official title.[89]
The Last Jedi had its world premiere in Los Angeles on December 9, 2017.[90] The European premiere
was held at London's Royal Albert Hall on December 12, 2017, with a red carpet event.[91]

Mail with artwork by Malcolm Tween.[92] On September 19, 2017, Australia Post released a set of stamp
packs.[93] Tie-in promotional campaigns were done with Nissan Motors and Bell Media, among others.
Two main trailers were released, followed by numerous television spots. Figurines of many of the
characters were released in October, and advance tickets for Last Jedi went on sale in October.
Several tie-in books were released on the same day of the North American release of the movie,
including The Last Jedi: Visual Dictionary, the novelization, and various children's reading and activity
books. Related novelizations included the prequel book Cobalt Squadron, and the Canto Bight, a
collection of novellas about the Canto Bight Casino.

both the second highest amounts of all-time.[100] The opening weekend figure included an IMAX opening-
weekend of $25 million, the biggest IMAX opening of the year and the second biggest ever behind The
Force Awakens.[101]

Critical response
On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, Star Wars: The Last Jedi has an approval rating of 92%
based on 334 reviews, with an average rating of 8.1/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "Star
Wars: The Last Jedi honors the saga's rich legacy while adding some surprising twists—and delivering
all the emotion-rich action fans could hope for."[105] On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score
of 86 out of 100, based on 54 critics, indicating "universal acclaim".[106] Audiences polled
by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A" on an A+ to F scale,[100] while ComScore reported
audiences gave an 89% overall positive score and a 79% definite recommend.[99] An audience poll of
U.S. adults conducted by SurveyMonkey on the first four days of release found that, out of all the
respondents who said they had seen the film, 89% said they either "loved" or "liked" it.[107]
Matt Zoller Seitz of RogerEbert.com gave the film four out of four stars, praising the risks and surprises
its taken storytelling-wise, writing that "The movie works equally well as an earnest adventure full of
passionate heroes and villains and a meditation on sequels and franchise properties.... [The film] is
preoccupied with questions of legacy, legitimacy and succession, and includes multiple debates over
whether one should replicate or reject the stories and symbols of the past."[108] Writing for Rolling
Stone, Peter Travers gave the film 3.5 out of 4 stars, praising the cast and the direction: "You're in hyper-
skilled hands with Johnson who makes sure you leave the multiplex feeling euphoric. The middle part of
the current trilogy, The Last Jedi ranks with the very best Star Wars epics (even the pinnacle that is The
Empire Strikes Back) by pointing the way ahead to a next generation of skywalkers – and, thrillingly, to a
new hope."[109]
Richard Roeper of the Chicago Sun-Times also gave the film 3.5/4 stars, saying, "Star Wars: The Last
Jedi...doesn't pack quite the same emotional punch [as The Force Awakens] and it lags a bit in the
second half, [but] this is still a worthy chapter in the Star Wars franchise, popping with exciting action
sequences, sprinkled with good humor and containing more than a few nifty 'callbacks' to previous
characters and iconic moments."[110] For The Hollywood Reporter, Todd McCarthy said, "Loaded with
action and satisfying in the ways its loyal audience wants it to be, writer-director Rian Johnson's plunge
into George Lucas' universe is generally pleasing even as it sometimes strains to find useful and/or
interesting things for some of its characters to do."[111]
Will Gompertz, arts editor of the BBC, gave the film 4/5 stars, writing "Rian Johnson ... has not ruined
your Christmas with a turkey. His gift to you is a cracker, a blockbuster movie packed with invention, wit,
and action galore."[112] Mark Kermode, film critic of The Guardian also gave the film 4/5 stars saying
Johnson "proves himself the master of the balancing act, keeping the warring forces of this intergalactic
franchise in near-perfect harmony."[113]
Conversely, Richard Brody of The New Yorker wrote, "Despite a few stunning decorative touches (most
of which involve the color red) and that brief central sequence of multiple Reys, the movie comes off as a
work that's ironed out, flattened down, appallingly purified. Above all, it delivers a terrifyingly calculated
consensus storytelling, an artificial universality that is achieved, in part, through express religious
references."[114] Kate Taylor of The Globe and Mail gave the film 2/4 stars, saying the film suffered from
too many new additions and writing, "Nifty new animals, a maturing villain, a flagging heroine, muffled
humour – as it seeks to uphold a giant cultural legacy, this unfolding trilogy struggles to maintain a
balance that often seems just out of reach."[115] According to Christian Toto of The Washington Times,
many American conservative commentators panned the film due to their perception that the movie
promoted liberal values more explicitly than prior episodes.[116]

Sequel
Episode IX, which will be the final installment of the sequel trilogy, is scheduled for release on December
20, 2019.[117] Principal photography is set to begin in June 2018.[118]Although Colin Trevorrow had initially
been attached to direct the film, on September 5, 2017, Lucasfilm announced that Trevorrow had
stepped down as director.[119] A week later, Lucasfilm announced that J. J. Abrams would return to
direct Episode IX and co-write it with Chris Terrio, with the co-writers stating that Episode IX will bring
together all three trilogies, with elements from each.[120][121]
Prior to her death in December 2016, Carrie Fisher had been expected to appear in Episode
IX.[122][123] Though Fisher's family granted the rights to use recent footage of Fisher for Star Wars: Episode
IX, she will not appear in the film.[124] In January 2017, a statement appeared on Lucasfilm's website
stating that they had no plans to digitally generate new footage of her.[125]
