Pretty snazzy, huh? And. what’s that in the shot of Krennic walking amongst assembled Imperial officers?
Coined as A Star Wars story in the large universe of the Star Wars franchise, this film is interesting enough as it features no Jedis or the use of the force within its main cast but still worthy to be part of the beloved franchise. Stitch Kingdom got hold of the synopsis for Rogue One.
Here’s NBC’s first teaser for the new trailer, a TV spot that cuts footage of the movie with some Olympians.
The hosts of The Talk interviewed Smits while promoting his role in the upcoming Netflix series, The Get Down, and was greeted with a bit of a surprise: a Star Wars Celebration rumor had Smits on the Rogue One reel. “The most cruel we’ve seen them was probably the destruction of Alderaan (which is a BIG loss, but we didn’t see people dying/hurting on screen)”, user shocktroopco noted. While you won’t see much, glimpses at Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones), Chirrut Imwe (Donnie Yen), Baze Malbus (Wen Jiang) and Captain Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) along with the rebel U-Wing and the droid played by Alan Tudyk are a treat nonetheless.
