We're only two months away from the release of the next Star Wars movie, but if you can't wait for a taste, you're in luck: the latest trailer has dropped.
Just be warned, director Rian Johnson initially suggested you might want to steer clear so that nothing is spoiled:
He's since recanted though, so you're probably safe unless you really don't want to know anything:
Still with us? Here's what we saw.
The trailer opens with shots of Kylo Ren as Supreme Leader Snoke, a villain from the dark side, says: "When I found you, I saw raw, untamed power — and beyond that, something truly special."
It then cuts to Rey, who is seen training with a lightsaber on the tiny mountainous island where she met Luke Skywalker as the very end of 2015's The Force Awakens.
She questions her destiny, saying: "Something inside me has always been there."
Skywalker looks impressed by her use of The Force, observing, ominously:
"I've seen this raw strength only once before. It didn't scare me enough then. It does now."
We also see the late Carrie Fisher in her last appearance as Princess Leia, as well as the return of new characters Finn and Poe Dameron.
The biggest moment comes at the end. After a series of dramatic action sequences, Rey says, "I need someone to show me my place in all this," after which Kylo Ren offers her his hand.
The movie releases in Australia on December 14.
Also, prepare your wallet, because your child is probably going to a want a plush toy of this weird new Pokemonesque creature that was just revealed:
