VIDEO : Rian Johnson Says 'The Last Jedi' Is Training Portion of Trilogy

Rian Johnson considers 'Star Wars: The Last Jedi' as ?training? for Lucasfilm?s new trilogy.

"The Force Awakens" raised questions, but 'Jedi' didn't answer a lot of them.

But the latest film did push the boundaries of what Star Wars can do.

...It?s a very character-based approach where we just start with each one of these characters we care about and figure out what the hardest next step is for each of them.
