11. Traitor!

Finn and Rose (who doesn't make the trailer) are going undercover as part of their secret mission in The Last Jedi, with the behind-the-scenes footage revealing John Boyega in First Order attire.

Now we know what that leads him: a showdown with his old boss, Captain Phasma.

It's a clear callback to the TR-8R moment of the first film, but promises to be even better. Captain Phasma, given her prominence in the marketing, should've been given that first traitor moment anyway, and they're making amends here.

The design once again looks awesome, and the way it's shot echoes some of the lightsaber duels we've seen in the franchise, while this hints at some major destruction of the First Order base (which is perhaps the mission in the first place).
