Apart from the title reveal, fans are already looking forward to a teaser trailer of "Star Wars: Episode 8"  to be released soon. Filming of the movie wrapped in July this year, and the movie is currently in the post-production phase of development. So "Star Wars: Episode 8" cast and crew may have been cooking something up to get the fans more excited.

While the supposed title of "Star Wars: Episode 8" isn't confirmed yet, fans of the Skywalker sequel may now start to speculate what the name "Forces of Destiny" actual means for the film in terms of the plot. "Star Wars: Episode 8" hits cinemas on Dec. 15, 2017.
