VIDEO : 'Last Jedi' To Feature Ultimate BB-8 Showdown

Unable to play video. When the first teaser for The Force Awakens debuted and audiences saw BB-8 rolling across the screen, everything we thought we know about astromech droids was thrown out the window. As audiences head into The Last Jedi, we're well aware of what BB-8 can do, with the new film now pitting the droid against a new foe: BB-9E. ?BB-8 has this huge personality and this huge heart, but you know, in a sense, I?ve always found it to have a sort of slightly manipulative quality,? Neal Scanlan, head of the Star Wars creature shop, told Entertainment Weekly.
