May the 4th be with you Star Wars fans. With the new film Star Wars: The Force Awakens all set to hit theatres this Christmas, the stars of the upcoming movie are featured on the latest Vanity Fair cover: and it looks great! [caption id=“attachment_2227026” align=“alignleft” width=“428”]  @VanityFair Twitter[/caption] If you look hard enough there is even a Yoda quote on the cover, which reads, “In a dark place we find ourselves — a little more knowledge might light our way." The cover features of Han Solo (Harrison Ford), Chewbacca (Peter Mayhew), and stars Rey (Daisy Ridley) and Finn (John Boyega). The cover has been shot by famous photographer Annie Leibovitz who has photographed a wide plethora of stars from Amal Clooney, Kim Kardashian to even Sarah Jessica Parker. The magazine feature also reveals shocking news where director JJ Abrams reveals that he thought about killing off Jar Jar Binks. “I have a thought about putting Jar Jar Binks’s bones in the desert there. I’m serious! Only three people will notice, but they’ll love it.” Vanity Fair saw new footage from the film as well, including a scene in which a Jawa-like creature popped out of the desert. Abrams called it “a classic, old-school seesaw puppet. We just buried it in the sand, and Neal Scanlan, the creature guy, pushed down on one side and the thing came up on the other side. It’s so old-school and crazy. We could improve this thing, but at some point do we lose the wonderful preposterousness?”  The magazine also  tweeted out “rebel scum and stormtroopers join forces on our new Star Wars cover.” Vanity Fair’s June issue will be available as a digital edition on 7 May and on newsstands nationwide in the US on 12 May.
