Published on 6/8/16 by Craig Smith

We all know Disney loves to drop teases whenever they can for all of their properties. This is great for those of us Star Wars fans that can’t get enough of the franchise and can’t wait until the next movie comes out.

Rian Johnson, the director of next year’s Star Wars: Episode VIII took to Twitter today to offer up a little glimpse of the new set and what appears to be Luke Skywalker’s cloak in the movie, or at least one very similar to the one he wore at the end of “The Force Awakens.” Johnson says he is sharing this image to mark the “home stretch” of filming.
