Earlier today the Disney Legends ceremony was held at D23 and inducted a variety of iconic figures included Star Wars alums James Earl Jones, Jon Favreau, and newcomer Ming-Na Wen. But that wasn't all we got, as those that were in attendance also caught a quick glimpse at the final installment in the Skywalker saga.
During the ceremony, a sizzle reel celebrating all things Disney in 2018 and 2019, was shown to the audience, which included brand new footage from Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker. Our head writer Dominic Jones was in the room and tweeted out what was shown,
A fair amount of new #TheRiseOfSkywalker footage was shown in the Disney Legends highlight reel. Including a couple of shots of the trio all together (in the Falcon and in the desert). Also a shot of Kylo taking the Vader helmet out of a space drawer.— Dominic Jones @ D23 (@DominicJ25) August 23, 2019
There was also a dialogue exchange between Rey and Finn, where Rey says she has to go do something (dangerous) alone. Ultimately they decide to go together. (I can’t remember how it exactly went)#TheRiseOfSkywalker— Dominic Jones @ D23 (@DominicJ25) August 23, 2019
Although it has not been officially released online, several low quality versions of the footage have made their way online. One in particular comes from R/StarWarsLeaks on Reddit.
The footage shows a classic Rebel Blockade Runner, Kylo Ren looking down upon the melted helmet of Darth Vader, as well as new shots of Rey, Finn, Poe, and others. You can watch it below:

In addition to that, another brief bit of footage was shown at another point in the panel. @OneCap8 on Twitter managed to get a screencap, which features Rey, Finn, Poe, Chewbacca and C-3PO on Pasaana:
