EPISODE VII: THE RETURN OF DREW STRUZAN!

The new poster for THE FORCE AWAKENS, revealed at the DISNEY 23 EXPO in California.

There might not be any more new footage for the movie yet, but that doesn't mean that other areas of THE FORCE AWAKENS publicity can't be explored in the meantime, like this lovely new teaser poster for attendees of the DISNEY 23 EXPO, courtesy of the legendary talents of movie poster icon/artist Drew Struzan, clearly out of retirement for this very special piece unveiled today (15th August, 2015) States-side.

Thanks for coming back, Drew!

So is this a "teaser poster" or will there be an official release poster later?

It looks like it ended up being used just for this event. But that doesn't mean it wasn't a teaser poster idea/commission in the first place.
