Rumour Confirmed: The Force Awakens Trailer will Debut Friday [Updated]

Rumours: Confirmed

It's been a wild day when it comes to the rumour mill. Apparently Regal Cinemas has been handed the holy grail, and will be hosting the exclusive debut of the Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer this Friday. Unfortunately for them though, they may have jumped the gun on announcing it.

Thankfully though, that error seems to have forced (no pun, seriously) JJ Abrams' hand when it comes to the announcing of it. So while the "surprise" may be spoiled for some, we now know exactly what to expect this Friday.

The trailer will reportedly appear in front of every movie shown at these thirty locations:

State	City	Chain	Theatre
AZ	PHOENIX	HARKINS	TEMPE MARKETPLACE
CA	LOS ANGELES	AMC	CENTURY CITY
CA	LOS ANGELES	Indep	EL CAPITAN
CA	IRVINE	REGAL	SPECTRUM IRVINE 21
CA	SAN FRANCISCO	AMC	METERON 16
CA	SAN JOSE	CINEMARK	OAKRIDGE 20
CA	SAN DIEGO	REGAL	MIRA MESA 18
CAN	TORONTO	CPX	YOUNGE & DUNDAS
CAN	VANCOUVER	CPX	RIVERPORT
CO	DENVER	AMC	WESTMINSTER 24
DC	WASH D.C	AMC	TYSONS CORNER 16
FL	MIAMI	CARMIKE	PARISIAN 20
GA	ATLANTA	REGAL	ATLANTIC STATION
IL	CHICAGO	REGAL	CITY NORTH
MA	BOSTON	AMC	BOSTON COMMONS 19
MI	DETROIT	CINEMARK	SHOWCASE 20
MN	MINNEAPOLIS	AMC	SOUTHDALE

NY	NEW YORK	AMC	LINCOLN SQUARE 12
NY	NEW YORK	REGAL	UNION SQAURE
OH	CLEVELAND	CINEMARK	CINEMARK 24
PA	PHILADELPHIA	REGAL	WARRINGTON 22
TN	NASHVILLE	CARMIKE	THOROUGHBRED 20
TN	KNOXVILLE	REGAL	PINNACLE
TX	DALLAS	CINEMARK	PLANO 20
TX	HOSTON	REGAL	MARQ*E STADIUM 23
TX	AUSTIN	ALAMO	ALAMO S LAMAR
UT	SALT LAKE CITY	CINEMARK	CINEMARK 24 WJ
WA	SEATTLE	REGAL	THORNTON PLACE 14
WI	MILWAUKEE	MARCUS	BROOKFIELD 16

Update No. 1: Looks like it's not just Regal in on it, but that AMC might be getting in on the action too.

Update No. 2: Turns out that the original release from Regal seems like a very strategically sounds move, as more and more major chains are announcing they will be joining in on the fun. Cinemark is going to get in on the fun too.

Update No. 3: And now we have full confirmation, including multiple theatre types and soem Canadian theatres (for Torontonians and Vancouverites). Oh, and this comes from StarWars.com so I think we can trust it :D

The United States is a big country, so it's nice of them to put it out there for everyone to see in all 9 cities that exist in the US.

Warlord Brimstone aka Seabr'imsto'nedansr, 24 Nov, 2014 7:47 PM

Dang it, I was in Houston yesterday.

Marcinius Turelles, 24 Nov, 2014 7:51 PM

Road trip?

Lord Marick Tyris Arconae, 24 Nov, 2014 8:56 PM

So happy I live in one of the best city's on earth. Anyone want to see it in Union Square with me? :P

Lord Marick Tyris Arconae, 24 Nov, 2014 8:57 PM

(New York City, that is)

Warlord Brimstone aka Seabr'imsto'nedansr, 24 Nov, 2014 10:45 PM

Now in 30 cities and 2 in Canada

Warlord Brimstone aka Seabr'imsto'nedansr, 24 Nov, 2014 10:46 PM

So, do University finals or go see the trailer....

Master Windos, 25 Nov, 2014 2:59 AM

Bloody Americans (and to a lesser extent Canadians), I guess the rest of us will have to settle for waiting for it to leak.

Lord Idris Adenn, 25 Nov, 2014 4:09 AM

Thank goodness. One only 10 minutes from my house. Guess I know what I'll be doing this weekend.

I am personally intrigued as to whether the Mouse© goes all postal on Cam Vids via youtube. One would have to assume they paid/are being paid a redonkulous amount of money to be appearing in the coming attractions before every film at these locations. I think we can expect to see a solid HD release by Tuesday at the latest, but they may surprise us and post at the same time. Needless to say, I'll be doing my best to stay on top of it for everyone :D

WOOT for living an hour from Atlanta! The wife wasnt happy when I declared we were going to Atlanta on Saturday to watch a movie (trailer). :P

General Kenath Zoron Ad Vizsla, 25 Nov, 2014 6:26 AM

I may just drive out to Vancouver. Only about 10-12 hour drive with the time change. No biggy.

Warlord Brimstone aka Seabr'imsto'nedansr, 25 Nov, 2014 8:33 AM

Or they might do what the did after phantom menace. After it showed in theater, entertainment tonight premiered it on national tv

Tarax Eosphoros Taldrya Kor, 25 Nov, 2014 4:28 PM

Yacks and I will go watch it together.

By that I mean we'll be in the same theatre watching the same movie, but we'll sit on opposite ends of the room and not acknowledge each other's presence, as the Covenant demands. Should we cross paths, we will ignore each other to the fullest extent of our abilities. As is must.

Keirdagh Taldrya Cantor, 25 Nov, 2014 4:29 PM

As was decreed by the ancients.

Lord Halcyon, 25 Nov, 2014 4:36 PM

I too shall join in on this non-meeting meeting. What movie shall we partake in as individuals? :P

Master Malik Sadow, 25 Nov, 2014 4:52 PM

Does this mean Halc will be stuck between Tarax and Yacks?

Lord Halcyon, 25 Nov, 2014 4:55 PM

No...nonononono....no.

Warlord Brimstone aka Seabr'imsto'nedansr, 26 Nov, 2014 4:48 AM

I can see it now........

Keirdagh Taldrya Cantor, 26 Nov, 2014 10:45 PM

Trailer will be going online Friday as well.
