Star Wars has always been known for putting the epic in space epic, and Star Wars: The Last Jedi will surely be no different. When coupled with the rumoured runtime, however, you’re looking at being just over two months away from feasting your eyes on the longest Star Wars movie ever. Perfection.

The movie listing for Star Wars 8 on UK cinema chain Cineworld’s website (h/t Screen Rant) has the middle movie in the third trilogy clocking in at a whopping 150 minutes. But how does that stack up to every other live-action movie in the franchise? Stopwatches at the ready: let’s take a look…

Star Wars: A New Hope – 121 mins

Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back – 124 mins

Star Wars: The Return of the Jedi – 131 mins

Star Wars: The Phantom Menace – 133 mins

Star Wars: Attack of the Clones – 142 mins

Star Wars: The Revenge of the Sith – 140 mins

Star Wars: The Force Awakens – 135 minutes

Star Wars: Rogue One – 133 mins

Star Wars: The Last Jedi – 150 mins (unconfirmed)
