(Update: Daniel Miller has tweeted a few more descriptions of what he saw in “The Last Jedi” footage shown yesterday. Those tweets have now been added to the others from yesterday.)
The first bit of “The Last Jedi footage was shown today at the annual Disney Shareholder meeting, and some descriptions of what was shown have been reported by Los Angeles Times reporter Daniel Miller in a series of tweets.
You can check out the descriptions of what was shown in the tweets below by Daniel Miller, which includes Luke’s first words to Rey:
“Star Wars: The Last Jedi” clip is being screened. But it’s a joke, sort of! We just got a few seconds of Rey handing Luke a lightsaber.

We just saw more “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” footage. In it, Luke asks Rey, “Who are you?” Then we see her deftly handle a lightsaber.

Also making appearances in “The Last Jedi” footage: Chewbacca, General Leia Organa and Finn.

One last thing on the “Last Jedi” footage: We saw all sorts of settings — mountains, oceans, forests, deserts. Look suitably epic, exotic.

More on “The Last Jedi” clip, since ppl are asking: General Leia Organa was onscreen for just a second in military garb and didn’t speak.

Speaking of “The Last Jedi” clip montage, I failed to mention yesterday that Poe Dameron appeared in it, briefly.

Finally, “The Last Jedi” footage included a shot of Rey, clearly under duress, surrounded by many small orbs of light that hung in the air.

Definitely some cool stuff. What stood out to me in those descriptions were the settings being described, which included a desert. Could we be returning to Jakku in Episode VII? And of course the big one to me is that Luke asks Rey “Who are you?” Is he asking her because he truly doesn’t know who she is? Or is it a test where he does in fact know who she is, but is wanting to hear how she answers?
This will no doubt bring more speculation until we get the answer, or see the footage for ourselves, which hopefully wont be much longer as Celebration Orlando is just a little over a month away, and if they had this footage ready for the shareholders meeting, I think they will have something similar ready for us fans during Celebration.
