Warning: Potential spoilers for Star Wars: The Last Jedi!
The annual shareholders meeting for The Walt Disney Company took place today in Denver and the first piece of Star Wars: The Last Jedi footage was screened for those in attendance.
CEO Bob Iger revealed the clip, which picks up from the final moments of Star Wars: The Force Awakens as Rey hands Luke Skywalker his lightsaber. The LA Times reports the clip sees Luke finally deliver a line of dialogue though, asking Rey “Who are you?” before taking back his weapon.
Additional pieces of Star Wars: The Last Jedi footage were revealed that included Chewbacca, General Leia Organa, and Finn; as well as various settings (mountains, oceans, forests, deserts), and a clip of “an X-wing wobbling mid-air, under attack inside a giant ship.”

New cast members will include Academy Award winner Benicio Del Toro, Academy Award nominee Laura Dern, and newcomer Kelly Marie Tran.
The sequel is produced by Kathleen Kennedy and Ram Bergman and executive produced by J.J. Abrams, Jason McGatlin, and Tom Karnowski.
