The Star Wars Day-themed ad delivers a variety of Star Wars references, such as the beginning “A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away.”

The devices are also located on a dusty Tatooine-like planet, with lasers missing their target, and the Nokia 6 followed by two white Nokia 3 devices (stormtroopers) saying the series’ most well-known line, “I am your father.” It also adds its own little joke with the Nokia 3310 declaring “I am the father of you all!”

The Nokia 3, 5 and 6 are the company’s mid-ranged devices for the year. The Nokia 6, the more powerful of the three, features a 5.5-inch device with a 1080 x 1920 pixel display, 16-megapixel camera, powered by a Qualcomm octa-core Snapdragon 430 processor with 4GB of RAM.

The Nokia 6 device does not have a Canadian price tag or release date, though Nokia’s website says the phone will cost €229, which converts into $345.38 CAD.

The four Nokia devices are expected to release globally in the near future.
