Has The Title Of STAR WARS EPISODE VIII Finally Been Revealed?
As far as we know, a teaser for Star Wars Episode VIII will NOT be attached to Rogue One, but a trademark filing by Lucasfilm in Europe today may very well reveal the upcoming movie's title...
Chances are that we won't get any Star Wars Episode VIII details until after the spotlight has been taken off Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, but AVS Forum has come across a very interesting trademark filing which may very well reveal the movie's title. Chances are that Disney and Lucasfilm are a little more careful than this, but it was submitted today to European Union Intellectual Property Office and covers a lot of different items. In fact, that list is over 2000 words and covers everything from toys to clothing.
So, what is the title they've registered? Star Wars: Forces of Destiny. It's a title which certainly fits after The Force Awakens, and with Rogue One right around the corner, the timing is definitely interesting.
For now, it's obviously best to take this with a pinch of salt, but what do you guys think about this title? Directed by Rian Johnson, Star Wars Episode VIII stars Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Adam Driver, Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Domhnall Gleeson, Gwendoline Christie, Andy Serkis, Benicio del Toro, Laura Dern, and Kelly Marie Tran. The movie is set to be released on December 15th, 2017.
