Mark Hamill has teased fans with a potential premier day of the month for the second laggard forStar Wars : The Last Jedi . As was the case with its predecessor , The Force Awakens , Lucasfilm has kept commercialize down to a lower limit for the extremely - anticipated sequel . The only bits of footage to be revealed thus far sphere tease that debuted at Celebration Orlandoback in April and abehind - the - scenes sizzle reelthat was bear witness at D23 . While viewing audience are eager to memorize and see more , many are in concord it ’s good Lucasfilm keeps things so secretive - preserve the surprises of what ’s in entrepot add up December .
Still , with roughly three months to go untilThe Last Jedihits theaters , the studio is going to piece together one last promotional push to bone up the ballyhoo . Of course , this will include a new theatrical trailer , and moviegoers are anxious to know when they ’ll get another look at film director Rian Johnson ’s film . As it turns out , they wo n’t have to wait too long , as it sounds like something is in the cards in the next span of weeks .
In a tweet that has since been deleted ( viaStar Wars News Net ) , Hamill respond to a fan wondering about a Modern trailer , saying,“Watch Monday Night Football on October 9th- for no understanding in particular . “Some will call in the finalEpisode VIItrailer first aired on ESPN’sMonday Night Footballbroadcast in October 2015 , so it ’s only logical forThe Last Jedito follow suit . After all , Lucasfilmhas been following theForce Awakenspromotional playbook stair - for - stepforLast Jedi , meaning they ’re not going to divert now .
Because Hamill took down his C. W. Post , it is difficult to gauge its validity . However , the deletion arguably makes it all the more plausible . Lucasfilm care to release raw data about their films on their own terms , and they ’re normally nimble to fling of any leaks that bug out up before they ’re quick . Odds are , the studio has a " special declaration " planned for the near future and Hamill spilled the dome a small early . If October 9 was genuinely a random date the histrion came up with on the berth , his tweet would probably still be up . The worker is ( in)famous for some good - natured trolling on societal media - especially when it come to the galaxy far , far away . In those illustration ( like when hisPop Culture Questshow teased a look at its ownEpisode VIII ) , Lucasfilm did n’t take care . It ’s somewhat telling this was the Hamill tweet that took matter a step too far .
Along with Johnson , Hamill recentlyadvised sports fan to avoid further marketingforThe Last Jediin an effort to avoid spoilers , but he knows theStar Warsfan base all too well . Hamill understands that while some multitude will fain go into the theater in the dark , the temptation to watch novel footage from the movie will be too majuscule for 1000000 of others who are impatiently counting down the day . Plus , the modernStar Warstrailers have earned a reputation for not let out any of the juicy details , so it should be good to check out the new prevue - whenever it does come out .
