Just a few days after Star Wars: The Force Awakens got a Japanese trailer full of new footage, the film’s first TV spot was unveiled. Sure, it’s mostly footage we have already seen, but the spot is clearly meant to introduce one of the film’s new characters.
The spot was posted on Twitter and reveals how important Daisy Ridley’s Rey character is. “Every generation has a story,” the text reads, making it evident that The Force Awakens focuses on the new characters, not the old ones.
Still, there is one new shot of one of the Original Trilogy characters. Han Solo (Harrison Ford) is seen on the new snow planet and he’s wearing a jacket similar to the one he sported in The Empire Strikes Back on Hoth. Other than that, all the footage seems familiar, although there might be another new shot or two in there.
The Japanese trailer released last week had much more new footage, even though the October trailer was billed as the last one we would see before the movie opens.
The Force Awakens hits theaters on Dec. 18 and you can already buy tickets online.
