Watch Anna Kendrick Fall Deep Into The Star Wars Hype In The New Trailer For ‘Star Wars: Battlefront’
It features a global phenomenon of people from all walks of life disappearing, swept up in some experience while the rest of us stay behind on earth. Sound familiar?
As Star Wars: The Force Awakens continues its slow and steady arrival, blocking all else on the pop culture horizon, it’s a strange time to not be a Warsy. A Jed-head? Sorry. With the continual stream of posters, promos, teasers, trailers, inside snippets, outsider opinions, tweets and Tumblr explosions, it feels a little like being a lactose intolerant Jewish kid in a house full of advent calendars. Each day brings a supposedly tasty new surprise in the lead-up to an event I really don’t care about.
Anyway! Today’s little treat is the new trailer for Star Wars: Battlefront — the upcoming re-make of the classic 2004 first- and third-person shooter of the same name. It stars Anna Kendrick (adding gaming-enthusiasts to her ever-expanding fan base of accapella dweebs and indie alcoholics) and it features a global phenomenon of people from all walks of life disappearing, swept up in some experience while the rest of us stay behind on earth, bemused and alone.
Seems about right.
