Star Wars: Episode VIII Wraps Principal Photography

“Star Wars: Episode VIII” has been very under wraps, without a title even announced–but it’s getting closer to being complete! The cast and crew just finished up the film’s principal photography this week. This major milestone for Episode VIII was commemorated by cast and crew via many heartfelt Instagram messages:

John Boyega talks about how it feels to have completed another Star Wars film.

At home buzz before the wrap party! Another chapter done. Although this is the second time it still feels surreal being involved in such a life changing project. As I go onto other movies I take with me great memories! #Oneisfeelingonesself P.S. To everyone that has supported me since attack the block I thank you for encouraging me! This new life is tricky to take in but it’s always nice to have people route for you. LOVE!❤️

Actress Daisy Ridley posted about the wrap as well, with a stunning photo of her with what I presume to be Luke’s lightsaber that called to her in Episode VII:

And that is a wrap on Star Wars Episode VIII. My heart is brimming. #reyout

And lastly, Mark Hamill himself touches upon how the wrap was emotional for him as well:

This was easy compared to saying goodbye to the #Ep8 crew-They’ve been like family & I’ll miss them ALL! #SoGrateful pic.twitter.com/wcOzpCiJJp
