'Star Wars Episode VIII' Director Rian Johnson Shares Picture of Luke's Cloak
Movie

The helmer posted an image of Luke Skywalker's cloak on his Tumblr page, hinting that the filming of the 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' sequel is almost over.

AceShowbiz - Rian Johnson is teasing "Star Wars" fans by posting a photo of a Jedi robe on his Tumblr page. "In the home stretch," Johnson captioned the picture he posted on Wednesday, June 8, hinting that the production of "Star Wars Episode VIII" is near completion.

There's no Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill) in the photo though. The particular costume piece is on a hanger with some filming equipment nearby. The cloak, which Skywalker was wearing at the end of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens", is placed in a Jedi temple on Achh-To.

It is still unknown whether this behind-the-scenes image is for a photo shoot or the movie itself. "The Force Awakens" star John Boyega recently said he was heading to a photo shoot for "Star Wars Episode VIII" to be used in various merchandising platform like toys, posters and press kit. However, Johnson gave no other information about the cloak picture.

"Star Wars Episode VIII" has been filmed since early February. The filming took place at Pinewood Studios. It follows the story of Rey (Daisy Ridley), Finn (John Boyega), Poe Dameron (Oscar Isaac), Luke Skywalker, Leia (Carrie Fisher) and other characters as they fight back the force of the First Order.

The film is scheduled for U.S. release on December 15, 2017.
