Behind-the-scenes footage of Star Wars: The Last Jedi was unveiled yesterday, which features scenes with the late Carrie Fisher.

The footage was released at the D23 Expo in Anaheim, California. Director Rian Johnson shared the stage at the expo with his Star Wars: The Last Jedi cast – including Daisy Ridley, John Boyega and Mark Hamill.

Fisher, who died in December at the age of 60 after suffering a heart attack on a Los Angeles-bound plane, is featured throughout the almost three-minute-long clip that debuted at the expo. The behind-the-scenes footage shows on-set cast footage as well as some special effects. At the end, we hear Fisher speak.

“It’s about family,” Fisher says in the footage, “and that’s what’s so powerful about it.” She then gives a little salute.

There were also interesting moments such the Millennium Falcon parked in the woods next to a camp fire, a purple-haired Vice Admiral Amilyn Holdo (Laura Dern) and Captain Phasma (Gwendoline Christie) in her stunning metallic silver uniform.

Lucasfilm’s Star Wars: The Last Jedi hits theaters December 15, 2017, and carries the logline: “An epic adventure that unlocks age-old mysteries of the Force and shocking revelations of the past.”
