Star Wars: The Last Jedi has finally arrived, as has this exclusive video, in which Digital Spy interviews some of the film's cast, and its director Rian Johnson.

As well as Johnson, we chatted to Oscar Isaac (Poe Dameron), Laura Dern (Vice Admiral Holdo), Andy Serkis (Snoke), Domhnall Gleeson (General Hux), Adam Driver (Kylo Ren) and Benicio del Toro (DJ).

Talking everything from characters, costumes, lightsabers and souvenirs from the set, The Last Jedi stars also revealed to us their favourite fan theories...

"The idea that he was a bounty hunter," says Benicio del Toro of DJ. "But he's not."

Serkis reveals that he's "heard everything" about his character Snoke, adding: "Is he a descendant of Salacious Crumb? Is he Jar Jar Binks?"

Oscar Isaac explains his favourite theory is "based on the poster", saying: "Clearly Poe goes to the dark side, 'cos he's on the dark side – you see, all the good guys are on one side."

Speaking ahead of the film's world premiere last week, Johnson dedicated the whole night to Carrie Fisher, who'll be making her final appearance as General Leia Organa in the film.

"I want to dedicate tonight to Carrie, who is up there right now flipping me the bird, saying 'Damn it Rian, don't you dare make this night a solemn tribute,'" Johnson said.

"So let's all have a blast tonight for Carrie."

Star Wars: The Last Jedi hit cinemas in the UK on December 14, with US cinemas following today, December 15.
