STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI Is the Official Title of EPISODE VIII
Disney has just sent out a press release revealing the official name of Rian Johnson's upcoming Star Wars: Episode VIII. It's called Star Wars: The Last Jedi, and as you can see from the logo in the teaser poster above, they've gone from the yellow outline of The Force Awakens to a red one, calling back to the red that's been featured in a couple of posters in the prequel trilogy. The Attack of the Clones teaser poster featured red text, as did the poster for Revenge of the Sith:
Of course, red has traditionally been the color of the Sith in Star Wars lore, so this color choice sets an ominous tone for Johnson's new film.
And then there's the title itself. The obvious inclination is that it's referring to Luke Skywalker, but if he trains Rey to become a Jedi in this film (as some have speculated), maybe it's referring to her instead? I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments below.
