‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens' final trailer release likely to air during football game
Fans need not wait longer for the release of the full and final trailer of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens.” Multiple sources have confirmed that the preview will be unveiled on Oct. 19, attached to a football game.
Sources of Making Star Wars have confirmed the trailer release and claimed that the announcement about the preview will come 12 hours before its actual airing. It’s believed the “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” trailer will be unveiled during Monday Night Football on ESPN. Io9 adds that the trailer will be released at around 8 p.m. EST, and tickets for the film will be up for sale at 8:30 p.m. EST. Once the trailer gets released on television, it’s reportedly likely for it to be available online afterward.
According to Making Star Wars reader Travis Ice, it makes sense for Disney and Lucasfilm to release the trailer for “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” on ESPN since the network is owned by Disney. Generally, it would reportedly be a great way to promote the football game to non-football fans who are "Star Wars" followers, as well as encourage football enthusiasts to watch the “Star Wars” film.
A new “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” logo will reportedly also be unveiled on Oct. 19. It will come with the generic logo previously seen in classic “Star Wars” films. Making Star Wars claims that the new logo will officially be attached to future film franchise and movie merchandise.
No other details have been provided about what will be revealed in the full and final trailer for “Star Wars: The Force Awakens.” It was previously rumoured to start with a voiceover from Kylo Ren (Adam Driver), unlike the first trailer where it opened with Supreme Leader Snoke’s voiceover (Andy Serkis).
