5) Finn And Poe Cameos
The trailer mostly focuses on Rey and Luke, which isn’t surprising as they’ll most likely be the emphasis of the film. However, fans will be pleased to see that their other favourite characters also get a look in, too. One of them isn’t doing too well, though.
At the end of The Force Awakens, Finn is left seriously injured after his and Rey’s big climactic battle with Kylo Ren. The trailer reveals that he won’t be straight back up on his feet in The Last Jedi. At about the 1:20 mark, we see the unconscious Finn either in some kind of craft or perhaps his intensive care unit.
The following shot cuts to the other stars of The Force Awakens: Poe Dameron and his trusty droid BB-8. The pair are seen racing through the Resistance base to reach their X-Wing… before it’s blown up. Hope you had insurance for that thing, Poe.
On a side note, the many fans out there who are hoping that Finn and Poe will be revealed as a gay couple in the movie have not missed the fact that this clip comes right after the shot of Finn in trouble. Is Poe running to save him? It’s possible.
