It was also recently revealed that Rogue One will finish a mere ten minutes before the 1977 original A New Hope begins, making the two films flawless double-bill fodder.

“Rogue One” hits theaters on December 16.
Sci-fi fans are flocking to YouTube to watch the latest trailer for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. “If you’re too respectful of it and you don’t do anything new and different, or taking risks, then what are you bringing to the table?”
Rogue One takes place in between the ill-fated Episode III: Revenge of the Sith and the Episode that is nearly universally loved, A New Hope. And it has Darth Vader in it for roughly 0.65 seconds.
“Jyn Erso, a Rebellion soldier and criminal, is about to experience her biggest challenge yet when Mon Mothma sets her out on a mission to steal the plans for the Death Star”. Anyone who follows Star Wars mythology knows that the filmmakers like to switch things up, so there could be a storyline we’re not even thinking about.
Director Gareth Edwards seems to have not only grasped the concept of a Star Wars movie, he adds his own rapidly improving flair.
“Rogue One” heads back to the galaxy far, far away during one of its most precarious times – the rise of the Empire and the construction of the original Death Star.
What more do you need? James Earl Jones returns as Lord Vader, his first time voicing the character since 2005’s Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith.
