More epic news from D23: it appears legendary artist Drew Struzan has returned to the Star Wars galaxy and created a brand new poster for Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens. He previously painted posters for the previous six Star Wars films, now he's back with this stunning poster showing us Finn(holding a Lightsaber!), Rey, Kylo Ren and Han Solo. It was revealed at the "Worlds, Galaxies and Universes" panel. As I write this they are being passed out to fans who attended the panel and photos of the poster are beginning to surface online. Unfortunately I couldn't find a source for this photo, but huge kudos to whomever snapped it. Check it out below:
Stay tuned for more news and details from D23!
Update: The official Star Wars Twitter account confirmed that this is a commemorative poster exclusive for D23 and is not the final theatrical poster. Additionally, Drew Struzan himself posted the artwork on his Facebook page without text, which you can check out below:
I wish to say thank you to all the fans. Your voice did not go unheard. I couldn't be happier that Lucasfilm and Disney...
