Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker blasts into theaters a week from today, and Lucasfilm and Walt Disney Pictures have shared another nostalgic featurette titled, “Conclusion” highlighting the end of the Skywalker saga that will get you right in the feels.

The video features director J.J. Abrams and some of the cast members sharing some of their thoughts on what being part of the Star Wars legacy has meant to them — with archival interviews and behind-the-scenes footage from the 40+ year history of the franchise. There’s also some new footage thrown in as well.

The Rise of Skywalker opens on my birthday, and as a life-long Star Wars fan I can’t think of a better present. It’s hard for me to remember a time when the movies, and these characters haven’t been part of my life. These featurettes have been hitting me right in the feels, and there’s a moment that starts at :49 with C3-PO and R2-D2 that choked me up quite a bit. Reasons. Watch it for yourself!

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker opens in theaters on December 20 and features the return of director J.J. Abrams, who co-wrote the screenplay with Chris Terrio. It also stars Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Adam Driver, Billy Dee Williams, Carrie Fisher, Sir Anthony Daniels and Mark Hamill, Keri Russell, Naomi Ackie, Richard E. Grant and Dominic Monaghan.
