Star Wars: Episode VIII The Last Jedi trailer opens on Ireland’s stunning Wild Atlantic Way

Friday, 14 April 2017: The hotly anticipated official trailer for Star Wars: Episode VIII The Last Jedi  launched this afternoon and is teasing fans with sneak peeks of the plot, filmed in out of this world Irish locations on Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way.

Director of Episode VIII, Rian Johnson and his location scouts were so taken with Ireland's Wild Atlantic Way, that they came for two shoots. 

Locations from the wind-swept tip of Malin Head in Donegal, along the coast in Clare, Kerry & Cork were handpicked to represent the planet Ahch-to in The Last Jedi.

The trailer picks up the story from the iconic moment in The Force Awakens, when Rey finds Luke Skywalker on the stoney steps of Skellig Michael, an island off the Kerry coast and includes a stunning aerial shot of the island.
