SEQUEL TRILOGY (2015-2019)
this title card appears to be in NEWS GOTHIC, stretched slightly, and is likely Bitstream's version #starwars SEQUEL TRILOGY (2015-2019)
the crawl titles for The Force Awakens and The Rise of Skywalker were both set in NEWS GOTHIC EXTRA CONDENSED BOLD rather than the UNIVERS 49 of the prequels, likely to make the crawl similar to TESB
