In a shock revelation today, Lucasfilm announced a new Star Wars trilogy to be in the works.
In the worldwide press conference held today at Lucasfilm’s HQ in San Francisco, California, Lucasfilm revealed that characters from the original trilogy like Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Han Solo and Darth Vader will return for the new sequels.
Journalists present at the conference were shocked when Darth Vader’s name was mentioned. One member of the press was quick to remind wasn’t Darth Vader dead in Return of the Jedi? Lucasfilm’s spokesperson smiled and replied apparently everything is not what it seems to be but refuses to elaborate more.
When asked about the storyline of the new trilogy, Lucasfilm remained tight lipped but said that due to the popularity of stormtroopers around the world, George will be writing a subplot which tells the story of a lone stormtrooper who escaped from The Rebel after the battle on Endor and his adventures looking for droids on far away lands.
A short teaser trailer was screened and a leaked version can be found here.
---------------------------------------
yeah… nice one ^^
Wow, I guess the waiting has paid off. I’ve forgotten all the classic lines for Star Wars(shame on me…), but what I can say is “The Force is strong with this one…”.
Whatever! har har
*kicks gordon in the lightsabre*
I knew it was too good to be true. >_<
I fell for it too lol
I love the trailer, but where’s Jedi?
I believe that this story is about a lone clone trooper. But from the looks of the movie poster, it looks like a 501st clone trooper. The Stormtroopers’ armor is also similar to the one used during the Clone Wars. Not the fight against the rebellion.
Darth Vader is not dead? How can that be?
It’s not April 1st. You bastard! I got rick rolled on my birthday!! XD ARG!
that was good, i was waiting for someone to use danny’s rickroll in an awesome way. i think you win first prize in that!
LMAO nice one, Gordon. I think you got everyone ^^
oh wow great new indeed! *checks calendar* good thing it’s not April 1. ^^
darn it! fooled and rick rolled!
I didnt fall for it because i read the comments before checking the link.
me=winnar?
DAMN IT, i just got rick rolled
OK so many ppl got tricked on teaser which is rick roll..?
WAHHH NEW TRILOGY~~~~~~~
OT -> Hi dude, finally saw your comment on my blog (I rarely update that page anymore but that may change soon)… thanks for liking the shots
You..you…did you just…? D:
Congrats, this the first time I’ve been rickrolled in months.
Nice Try, even in the EU, Vader’s a dead man.
Yay for reading the comments first…. But you had me going before that. Haha…. Star Wars is a wonderful but tired series, can’t say I’m disappointed….
really? woohooo~ me only interested to watch stormtroopers in action ^^;
OH SHI- YOU SIR JUST MADE MY DAY.
SHIT I GOT RICK ROLLED DAMN YOU GORDON!!!!!!!!!
It’s always better to check the public reaction before proceeding, just like when like one goes buying figures and gunplas via online shops (which reminds me of your reijin).
Nevertheless it does sound feasible to me for Lucas to remake the original Star Wars. Nice one on getting so many people there Gordon.
@ all,
thanks for the comments and enjoy the video! *laughs*
@ FatB,
lol. gotcha!
@ Raven,
good observation. i can’t find a nice stromtrooper pic so decided to use this blue clone trooper instead. beside i like the action pose of this 501st trooper.
@ Persocom
Happy Birthday! ^^
@ Dancing Queen,
thank you. went through lots of brainstorming to come up with this.
@ marvin,

DARN i felt for it and went around telling my friends before clicking on that link. i am THAT gullible lol
ya gotta admit, nice poster up there
NO! I got tricked again, damnit. =/
The poster gave it away immediately
The only believable bit was the part about Darth Vader being alive because Lucas is enough of an asshole to do it.
very excited about this new star war movie… wait…rickroll…
I completely fell for it. nice one ^^

Never gonna give you up… never gonna let you down…

@ TinyRedMan,
there is an upcoming movie on the clone wars so won’t be as believable.
What the – This is going to mess up the space/time continuum of the Star Wars universe!
DUDE!!!! BEST RICK ROLL EVER!! Ha I thought this was for real too omfg…..Good one!
@ Stifler,
lol of course not. george can change anything because he has the power to.
@ bzou
thank you and enjoy the video. ^^
Almost got rick-rolled.
Nice one.
A new trilogy?
7, 8, 9?
Wow.
Are the actors for the original characters old already?
Will they return in as lead roles?
Stormtrooper subplot.
Cool.
3 for the past, 3 for the present?, 3 for the future??
Or will it continue right after 6?
@ iron2000,
not to worry about the actors getting too old for their part. all the original characters will be enhanced with CGI effect since george is so good at doing it.
If only it were true. orz
Looks authentic to me… X_x Definitely Orz
