Director J.J. Abrams reveals the official runtime for Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker which is shorter than originally reported and thought.
During an interview with EWLive on SiriusXM 109, Abrams revealed the Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker runtime comes in at two hours and 21 minutes, which is 141 minutes.
The runtime was initially reported at around 155 minutes, so that is a difference of only around 14 minutes.
Abrams did note “I believe” when discussing the original runtime, so obviously things could always change by a minute or two here or there.
The 141-minute runtime for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker makes it the third-longest Star Wars movie, with Rian Johnson’s The Last Jedi coming in first and Clone Wars in second. Check out the runtimes below.
