Rogue One will also bring us to new worlds within the Star Wars universe, as evidenced by this pretty startling – and pretty awesome – shot of Stormtroopers marching through a turquoise sea. The several events, including interviews and panels will be live-streamed all this weekend on the Star Wars YouTube channel and on StarWars.com.

A new poster (below) was also released and features a new planet called Scariff. To see more details about the Star Wars celebration, Entertainment Weekly has the scoop. A young Han Solo spinoff film is already in the works, as well as a Boba Fett film. Launching with this Mark Hamill panel, the event is set to feature three fun filled days of costumes, exhibits, a vibrant, interactive show floor, screenings, exclusive merchandise, celebrity guests, panels, autograph sessions, fan-inspired activities, and other surprises celebrating all things Star Wars.
