Here's Star Wars 8's opening line as predicted by the cast of Rogue One

One of the biggest questions in cinema, ever since the end of The Force Awakens, is what does Rey say to Luke at the beginning of Star Wars 8?

Since we found out that the sequel will lead directly on from Episode 7 (the first Star Wars movie to do this, by the way) fans have been speculating on the movie's opening line. So we decided to ask a few people who have some Star Wars experience for their input. 

I sat down with the cast of Rogue One to talk about the new movie and more, and asked for their predictions on what Rey would say to Luke when Star Wars 8 hits cinemas next year. Their answers ranged from the hilarious - "pancetta" - to the quiet possibly true - "please" - and you can see them all in the video above.

Directed by Rian Johnson and starring Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Laura Dern, Mark Hamill, Adam Driver, Gwendoline Christie, and Benicio del Toro, Star Wars 8 opens in cinemas on December 15, 2017.
