Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker Final Trailer Breakdown - 14 Things Fans Need To See
3. One Last Charge (On A Star Destroyer) - Whose Ship Is It?
Lucasfilm
In a trailer already littered with amazing shots, this may just take the cake for being the coolest (and most inspiring).
Having boarded an Imperial or First Order vessel, the Resistance - led by Finn and Co. - charge. BB-8 is there too, showcasing what a little trooper he is, and it's amazing by sheer virtue of the fact we've never really seen anything like it happen in a Galaxy Far, Far Away.
Given the old Imperial fleet are all pointing in a different direction to this particular vessel, it may be possible that this is actually a First Order Destroyer. It's difficult to tell which way it's facing, but it's certainly not the same direction as those other ships. Is it possible it's been hijacked by the Resistance?
WhatCulture's very own resident movie guy, Ewan has been working in the content creation biz for over 10 years now, having started as a freelance contributor to WhatCulture Gaming all the way back in 2015. After graduating with a First-Class Honours in History from Northumbria University in 2017 (where he won a prize for a totally killer dissertation on the Watergate years), Ewan took on the role of Comics Editor at WhatCulture and quickly developed WhatCulture Comics into one of the biggest superhero-focused channels on YouTube. He followed this with a brief hiatus at Screen Rant in 2021, where he worked across the Gaming and Film sections as a writer and editor, before returning to WhatCulture as a Senior Content Producer / Presenter in 2023. He started his own podcast, We Love Dad Movies, in 2022, and has contributed several written pieces to the Eisner-nominated comics website Shelfdust as well.
In his current role, Ewan incorporates his love of cinema, comic books, and history into written pieces and video essays for WhatCulture's Film & TV channel, as well as WhatCulture Gaming and WhatCulture Horror, with a particular focus on nineties-era Dad Movies, old school Westerns, and Golden Age Hollywood Noir. John Carpenter is his fave, and he thinks Batman Beyond should never have been cancelled. If that's your vibe, you'll probably like his stuff.
