Rian Johnson Shares Set Photos From STAR WARS: EPISODE VIII
We've seen a few set photos from Star Wars: Episode VIII already, and we've heard some wild rumors about the story the film will tell, all of which you can catch up on here. We now have some cool official images from the set of the film that director Rian Johnson has shared himself on his Tumblr. The photos were shared as a way to celebrate that they are at the halfway point of shooting. Johnson included the following captain:
"I can’t believe we’re halfway through the shoot. (We’re halfway through the shoot!)"
The photo above features an unknown resistance pilot sitting in an X-Wing as a crew member wipes down the window. The second image includes a member of the First Order standing at a console while another crew member is standing next to him wiping it down as well. Knowing about all the cleaning that is going on on the set of the film, this next caption from Johnson will make sense:
"Good. Bad. I'm the guy with the microfiber sham."
As cool as it is to see these photos, I can't wait to actually see some footage from the movie! Star Wars: Episode VIII is set to hit theaters on December 15, 2017.
