For Star Wars fans, the release of the new Episode VII movie is still far, far away, but in the meantime, there’s a new way to connect to the franchise — through the official Star Wars Instagram account.
Posts to the social media account began just hours ago, with images that fans are already mooning over. The first post was a selfie from Darth Vader and the second a behind-the-scenes shot tagged as a “latergram.”
The brand new account is just a few hours old, but has thousands of likes on each photo and over 23,000 followers so far. This is definitely an account Star Wars fans will want to keep up with for all the excitement before the release of Episode VII in December of 2015.
