UPDATE 2! Star Wars: The Force Awakens Teaser to be Released on September 11? Debunked!
This information comes from the British Board of Film Classification. According to the info, the teaser will be 1 minute, 39 seconds long…
Here’s the information posted on the site:
STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS[AVCO_BVI15_THEATTR_B]
TYPE Trailer
APPROVED RUNNING TIME 1m 39s
RELEASE DATES 11/09/2015
DIRECTOR(S) J.J. Abrams
CAST INCLUDES Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher,Simon Pegg
CUT This work was passed uncut.
Obviously this is not a full trailer since it’s only 1:39 min. long. Keep in mind that in Europe the dates are written with the day first, and the month second, so this is scheduled to be released on September 11, just nine days from now.
We’ve tried to verify this date with a source, who was quite surprised by this information and told us that there is definitely no trailer due at that time. So don’t be too quick to celebrate.
The British Board of Film Classification is a legit site, so I am not really sure what to think. Maybe one of the previously released teasers is going to be released in theaters again with a couple new shots, or perhaps it will be a new edit featuring shots from both of the teasers that we’ve seen so far. For now, all we know is that SOMETHING is apparently coming out on September 11th, and it’s just over a minute and a half long.
We’ll be back with an update for you the second we learn any more about this!

UPDATE!
Whatever this trailer is, it’s not going to be the new one that JJ Abrams told us to expect in the fall. It’s either a mistake or a reworked old footage.
UPDATE 2!
I just got confirmation… it’s a mistake on the dating and is actually the trailer we’ve already seen. It will get removed tomorrow.

No way.
DUDE!!! Wtf?!! I can’t take it. So much hope and so many let downs I almost feel like this movie is never coming out. Like we waited 3 years for nothing. It’s almost become some kind of mythical creature like ohhh did u see that?? Oh…wait no…it was nothing. Like who the F doesn’t release a full effing trailer 3 months away. This is BS!! I’m done
Who doesn’t release a full trailer 3 months before the movie?! oh wait, Age of Ultron didn’t…
You’re complaining now, but wait until the ABC hype train starts putting trailers, vignets, and internet banners all over their media outlets. Just like Age of Ultron did. Hope you’re ready for your Star Wars Finger Lickin Good Sauce (remember the Episode 1 promos at KFC? Pepperidge Farms Remembers…)
pepridge farm remembers haha
lol! chill the hell out geez.
GOOD. we’ll actually be SURPRISED at the movie.
youre DONE. lol. bye bye!!
No, Age of Ultron released actual clips from the movie almost a YEAR before its release.
Please go away.
ANOTHET TEASER?!!!! COME ON IM SICK OF WAITING
The possible date sounds horrible…But that´s me…
Why? It’s a Friday. Entertainment news and events often happens on a Friday. Nothing weird about that.
Sep 11 = 911 date
Yep. 14 years ago. In New York City. And DC. And PA. I live in NYC and the day gets a little less important every year. Pear Harbor was attacked and will “live in infamy” but only in History classrooms, books, etc. 9-11 doesn’t mean much in other parts of the world and this year is a Friday, a traditional film release date, and a date when new trailers would appear. Life grinds to a near halt only a few days a year, and with 9-11 always being right after Labor Day in the U.S., it’ll never be a holiday. Life goes on.
I’m from liverpool uk and i always think of nyc on september 11th. Been there a few times and after my own home city its probably my next favourite place in the world. Such a great, vibrant, cultured and beautiful place. NYC, you’ll never walk alone!! God bless you.
As much as I respect the lives lost in the tragic and horrific events 14 years ago, the world should not stop because of it. How many lives were lost at Pearl Harbor? D-Day? The entire holocaust? Do we restrict entertainment on those days? Do we pretend there aren’t things worth smiling over, laughing over, or enjoying life over? I will remember the lost and how the world shifted that day but to expect the world to pretend that nothing else exists for 24 hours is no way to live.
I don’t really care at all about it but for some people a trailer that has violence and explosions coming out on that date is going to piss them off and people like to get vocal when their pissed off and the news will jump on it = bad press. 911 hasn’t that long ago compared to Pearl Harbor, D-Day, ect.
It’s just ridiculous.
?
There’s a difference between deaths in war and deaths on a day that should’ve been peaceful.
Every day should be peaceful.
Twas the Death Star.. I knew it.
It was 14 years ago, and it’s a Star Wars trailer that has nothing to do with it, chill.
The Phantom Menace was 16 years ago, so if people can still find time to bash that than people have every right to still talk about 9-11. Jeez.
I’ve been waiting for this film for 32 years, and it’ll be here in 107 more days. What’s a few days/weeks for a trailer gonna kill anyone?
The force is strong with you.
You’re far too trusting.
the BBFC is responsible for all classifications in the UK, so age ratings and such.. not saying its 100% right but its not just some random group of people.. they know there shit usually.
REALLY?! I was SURE we were going to get a full trailer on force Friday. Mystery can only keep my hype for so long…you don’t have to spoil anything, but I need some FACTS!
Could that just be when they start to show it in cinemas? Could it be released online a week earlier?
Wooo
Any idea when we might get the film’s rating? PG-13 or PG? Perhaps by October or November?
It’s going to be PG-13 i guarantee it.
According to the BBFC website above (if this is true), it’s rated PG. A British PG is the equivalent of an American PG.
They haven’t finished editing it yet, it can’t have a rating yet.
Wtf is this another vague teaser?! We’re already teased. I want a full, traditional trailer already. specially after that 15 second thing this movie is starting to give me movie blue balls.
Too much pain in America about the date of 9/11. I doubt this report or that date’ll be changed.
If we only get a teaser again that will mean there still majorly working flat out solid on Post Production Effects, Music, Editing and Sound. It could be awhile until we get a decent robust trailer that the fans are crying out for. They’ll be working right near release day to finish it off no doupt cos it’s such a important movie for Disney. Let’s hope the Force don’t let people down on Friday.
Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher………….. Simon Pegg
I’m pretty sure this is just teaser 1 or 2 coming to cinemas. Disney would be extremely stupid to release a trailer on 9/11 and invoke offending a couple million Americans.
THE OFFICIAL TEASER 1 IS 1:39…
No it 1:28 long

I wish Americans weren’t as fearful and easily frightened / agitated.
It’s kind of pathetic looking at all the macho jingoism.
teaser 2 is already in cinemas, i saw it before ant-man in chicago.

I said it was a mistake and was told that site doesnt make mistakes lol thanks guys
Please release trailer force Friday PLEASE
I have a feeling that even if we don’t get a new trailer on force friday we definitely will get a teaser or 2
Good it was a mistake. So my hope for a Force Friday trailer lives on. The report says that the source didn’t expect a trailer on the 11th. Doesn’t say anything about one coming sooner…
It’s probably just the same teaser that we’ve been watching, but now showing it in the theater.
It would be incredibly disrespectful to release the Trailer on September 11th.
You’re a moron
I can`t even begin to imagine how exciting its gonna be getting to see the next new teaser trailer, and seeing Thrawn for the first time and some Yuuzhan Vong ships in combat to the star wars theme tune. And speaking of `debunked`, wait until you see who`s playing Plagueis in the force awakens. I mean the actor under the costume. I know but I can`t say. You`ll see in the extra scenes when they release the bluray.
Your so wrong it’s not even funny. Disney and Lucasfilm did away with all EU which includes Thrawn and Yuhzann Vong. Abrams already specifically said that Plageuis is not in the movie. They are doing all new things for this trilogy and beyond. And by the way it’s a full length trailer not a teaser.
Actually, you’re wrong. Plagueis is canon.
JJ never confirmed Plagueis isn’t in TFA. At COMIC CON, when the panel was asked about Darth Plagueis, Kasdan said, “Who? Darth Vegas?” Then JJ quickly jumped in and said, “For now, Darth Plagueis isn’t in the movie. Let’s move on!” In otherwords, the subject was quickly killed for a reason!
quick tip for our American friends. It’s only the US that puts the month first on dates. The rest of the world does it day/month/year 😉
Don’t care.
Yes, we know, as an American you don’t care about what the rest of the world does. You guys do it the proper way, everyone else does it “different”
exactly
Hope we finally get to see Luke, Leia, as well as the droids this time. Maybe even Snoke, Maz, and Hux too? I think it’s kind of wrong we’ve had TWO teasers already and not even the snippit of a duel either. Just a lightsaber flash which wasn’t the case in the other trailers.
No way we see Snoke until the movie drops. Hux will probably make an appearance but won’t talk. JJ is doing an incredible job of keeping everything under wraps.
Correct. We will not see Snoke because he is Darth Plagueis. Then the cat will be out of the bag.
but….non of the trailers we have seen so far have a runtime of 1:39???
We’re getting this trailer on Force Friday. It will be playing all over the Internet and in stores at the TFA displays. I just know it. So excited!!!
Wow.. more glorifed screen shots. Meh..
Interestingly (or ironically) on the search results page, (it is the last one listed) it shows the release date as today (01/09/2015). Only when you click the link for the details it shows 11/09/2015.

Can he hurry up with the damn trailer!?!? Enough is enough… The movie isn’t far off now and I know all us losers have been keeping up to date and actually care about BS toy information we have been getting/told to look forward too etc etc… But the general public needs to start gaining interest in this movie, which usually only occurs with a trailer……. Hurry up jj, you’re drunk.
I think it’s time for the trailer now. It’s enough to hold us over and keep us bickering until December 18th.
I’m sure the new trailer will come out on Force Friday, just 3 days from now. And it must be a full theatrical trailer, because we’re almost 3 months away from December 18. AND I also believe they’re showing a new poster, because the poster we’ve seen was exclusively made for the D23 Expo.
I’d settle for either at this point. Toys are well and good but if we don’t see EITHER a full trailer or poster on force Friday I think it would be a big missed opportunity.
just a point to note – if you look at the details in the BBFC website- it states the “classified dates are 01/09/15” the date it was classified for PG rating in the UK. Not the date the “trailer” will be in the cinema
Ok, Abrams, Lucasfilm, Disney. It’s time to give us a full trailer. In a few days it will be less than 100 days to the release date. The anticipation among fans is through the roof, yes, but it sure feels we have been living on breadcrumbs for 3 long years. I get that you want to keep the surprises, but there’s aa balance of the Force here and you are being too stingy. Seriously. Stop it and give us a trailer.
Wow, feel entitled much? They don’t owe you anything. And maybe they’re being very careful not to over-saturate the public with Star Wars since it will be a film-per-year for the next six years. My guess is they’re going to do very intense, hard marketing push 2 months before release. Otherwise people will burn out with constant Star Wars marketing.
11/10/2015 would be better 😉
Well I saw the comic-con footage on a theater in Italy and at the ending, really down low (maybe it was supposed to be off-frame) it said 20-9-2015. It could be anything, but… It’s a sunday I don’t know if that has any sense.
september 11… conspi transform into troll ?
still so stupid… bantha fodder !
I heard is was the release for the trailer that will appear on the Blu-ray of Age of Ultron – a trailer we have already seen.
September 11… That’ll be the trailer with Jar Jar in it.
check out this trailer bigbang-3d.com/starwars/
Force Friday is over for us in Australia and still currently happening in the USA…
NO TRAILER!!!!
I’m beyond pissed off…
JJ is just being a fool now. Truth be told, us loser super fans will not be enough to make this the biggest film of all time, he needs significant general public interest too and if he hasn’t realised non super fans ain’t scavenging around sites like this looking for bread crumbs of info.. Many of them wouldn’t even know there is a new Star Wars movie… Not until you start blasting them with a TRAILER! So hurry up JJ, I sense your ‘holding out’ on the world will be your undoing.
