Sometimes in life you need a pep-talk. Sometimes you need some encouragement to go for that promotion, ditch that loser boyfriend, lose some weight and otherwise change your life.

In the clip Felicity Jones’s rebel Jyn Erso gives a stirring address to her troops, while a choral arrangement of the Star Wars theme plays over previously-released footage of the film. Inspiring stuff, especially if you’re living a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.

As speeches to persuade others to fight big spaceships go, it’s no patch on Bill Pullman’s Independence Day address, but hey – we have hope it’ll still do the trick to get Jyn’s fellow soldiers in on the Death Star heist.
