Rian Johnson Confirms The Last Jedi’s Runtime

Star Wars: The Last Jedi director Rian Johnson has confirmed the film’s running time to be 150 minutes, which makes it the longest installment in the series to date. Word of Episode VIII‘s length first became public back at the end of September when multiple theater chains posted 2 hours, 30 minutes for the movie on their site, but some felt that could have just been a placeholder until something more official was revealed. Now, we know those initial reports were spot on.
