New 'Star Wars' Video Teases 'Episode VII' Millennium Falcon (And The Batmobile)

'Episode VII' Millennium Falcon Revealed In New Video

"Star Wars" fans were gifted with a treat on Thursday: Video of the Millennium Falcon, which will make its reappearance in "Episode VII." Director J.J. Abrams' production company, Bad Robot, tweeted the video tour of the ship's outside, which combines the familiar "Star Wars" theme with Hans Zimmer's equally familiar score from Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy. The reason for the crossover? An Easter egg at the clip's conclusion involving the Batmobile. The nerdy surprise is likely Bad Robot's response to "Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice" director Zack Snyder "blaming" a Stormtrooper for stealing the Batmobile, among other "Star Wars" references on Snyder's Twitter feed. (Don't ask, but head here for an explanation.) Whatever the case, this looks like a fast ship. "Episode VII" is out on Dec. 18, 2015
