EW teases The Last Jedi’s inevitable Luke, Leia reunion

Entertainment Weekly’s Anthony Breznican gets a little overwrought writing about Luke and Leia and if they’ll reunite in The Last Jedi. The article doesn’t say, but why even tease it in your big Lucasfilm-participating cover story if they won’t?

More intriguingly, the article also explores a bit of Luke’s mindset:

“Luke longs to have that extended family that he established in the original trilogies, but now he’s at a place in his life and in his history where he’s shunned all of that,” Mark Hamill says. “The big question is why didn’t he respond to Leia during [The Force Awakens]? There’s a lot of things you can’t answer until you see this movie.”

The Last Jedi: New pictures, costumes, nonexistent toy ‘spoilers’

Lucasfilm has released a new batch of images from The Last Jedi. None of them are new, exactly – they’ve all debuted in various publications – but it’s nice to get these out and about sans watermarks and crops. Check them all out at our Facebook.

→ Did Topps show us Luke Skywalker’s final costume? It’s not really much of a departure from what we’ve already seen him in, but since when has that ever stopped anything?

Don’t get too excited about things floasting around that ID a mini-Lego hologram that comes with Snoke as a character who’s not at all confirmed to be in this trilogy. Remember Finn Calrissian? And speaking of Topps and Snoke, they also give us our first official look at him.

→ Shockingly, Domhnall Gleeson won’t commit to being around for IX. Okay, not that shockingly.
