Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker Final Trailer Breakdown - 14 Things Fans Need To See
10. The First Order Fleet Converges
Lucasfilm
Easily one of the most impressive shots from the final Rise of Skywalker saw a fleet of First Order TIE Fighters converging on one of the new planets featured in the film, which most fans believe to be called Kijimi.
It's also speculated that this is the same location where bounty hunter Zorri Bliss could be from.

As to its wider importance regarding the film... that's less clear. Either way there's no denying how impressive it looks - both in this trailer, and in those released months earlier.
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.
