Jimmy Kimmel’s STAR WARS spectacular takes fandom to new heights!
During his Star Wars: The Force Awakens celebration episode featuring the cast of the new film and director JJ Abrams, Jimmy Kimmel refers to the movie as “the most anticipated sequel since the New Testament”. While it was said in jest, he’s really not too far off!
The massive late night event happened on Monday, but the official videos have finally made their way online!
Kimmel first talked one-on-one with JJ Abrams about crafting the film and keeping its secrets.

After a bit, they were joined by Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Adam Driver, and Carrie Fisher, who didn’t give much away but still had plenty to say!

Of course, it wouldn’t be a late night television show without some crazy antics to top it all off! First, the gang faced off against a 7-year-old Star Wars superfan named Arden in trivia… and totally got schooled.

The phenomenon got an extra dose of pop culture when Harrison Ford and Chewbacca settled a long, weary feud with the help of Adele’s “Hello”!
Kimmel also took some time out to re-imagine The Force Awakens as a romantic comedy rather than an epic adventure.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens hits theaters on December 18, 2015.
