Right towards the end of the trailer we get the absolute money shot, with our best look yet at 'Jedi' Rey.

It's a look that's been teased for a while, but we really do get the best sense yet of Rey's appearance in this film from the behind-the-scenes footage, and with her hood up and lightsaber ignited, she looks every inch the badass Jedi she's set to become.

That is, of course, if she actually becomes an actual Jedi. Since Luke is training her in his own way, and apparently thinks the Jedi needs to end, we might see Rey becoming an altogether different kind of Force-user. Either way, she looks awesome.

We get a few other glimpses of her in action, the best of which, though, has to be her dancing with Finn. It appears to be on Crait, and does suggest a reunion for the pair in this movie, but also it's just really fun to watch.

It's a wrap! What were your big takeaways from the behind-the-scenes footage? Let us know down in the comments.
