The second official trailer for the highly anticipated film premiered at the start of the four-day Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim Thursday. The two-minute preview has the light sabers, fighter jets and Stormtroopers that Star Wars fans know so well — and it shows Han Solo back on screen with his furry friend Chewbacca.
