As the December release date for the new Star Wars film creeps ever closer, Disney and Lucasfilm have released some new behind the scenes footage to whet fans' appetites.

The clip features some impressive shots of the Force Awakens set, including a whole host of elaborate sets, costumes, animatronics and stunts - seemingly backing up the many claims that the film will be using practical effects wherever possible.

There are a few neat surprises too, including a glimpse at Simon Pegg's costumed cameo and some observations from Mark Hamill. However there's teasingly still no proper look at Luke Skywalker or some of the other returning characters in costume.

The footage premiered at Comic Con last night, where a few thousand lucky fans were also treated to a surprise Star Wars music concert, which culminated in a climactic fireworks show.
