People have spotted a hidden image in the new Star Wars poster

The world is eagerly awaiting the release of Star Wars Episode VIII The Last Jedi, and one keen eyed fan has found a hidden message in the latest poster release.

The trailer has already dropped, as well as a poster for the new episode of the saga.

Stephen Murrow, an executive producer for a local news station, has tweeted what he believes to be a secret motif in one of the posters.

The poster in question prominently features Luke Skywalker, Rey, Kylo Ren, Leia Organa, and another figure, looming over them all.

Do you sense something? A presence you've not felt since...

Marth was not the only fan to notice the hidden face of character Darth Vader.

Or perhaps it was something completely different:

The poster's design also harked back to the last time Darth Vader appeared on screen in the series' chronology, in episode six, The Return of the Jedi.
