Star Wars 8 trailer: What time will Last Jedi sneak peek be released? UK and US

The latest look at the hotly-anticipated sci-fi movie is expected during the Vikings vs Bears NFL game, airing on ESPN in the US.

But what time can we expect the Star Wars 8 trailer?

It seems hugely likely that the clip will air during halftime; a theory bolstered by an Instagram video shared by ESPN in which they cheekily hinted that fans won’t want to step away from their screens at that point in the game.

So when will that be?

Coverage in the US begins at 20:15 ET, translating to 01:15 in the UK.

It is estimated, therefore, that the time in Britain when half-time arrives should be around 03:00.

That will be around 22:00 in Eastern Time, and 19:00 in Pacific Time.

The trailer will, in addition to being broadcast on ESPN, be shared on the Star Wars YouTube channel, Facebook and Twitter feeds, and official website.

The launch time has been under speculation for many weeks but yesterday LucasFilm finally confirmed it, building up to the release with three separate teasers.

Director Rian Johnson is also expected to speak about it this evening, appearing on a new live streamed show by and for Twitter at around 01:00 (UK).

Earlier today he urged fans who want to remain completely spoiler-free to avoid the new clip – but added that it’s “gooooood”.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi is out on December 14 in the UK.
