We see a lot more of the unsafe world Felicity Jones’ Jyn Erso plays a part of, but the trailer inevitably just ends up asking more questions that it does answering the ones already posed by teasers.
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story arrives in theaters December 16, 2016.
It’s no secret that Darth Vader is back. The English actress and Oxford grad leads a desperate plot to steal the Empire’s plans for its Death Star spaceship.
The new film is set prior to 1977’s “Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope”.
“Rogue One” isn’t expected to depart from the Star Wars formula.
A brand new trailer for “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” debuted during NBC’s Olympics coverage on Thursday night. And one of the most impressive scenes shows Chirrut Îmwe (played by Donnie Yen) taking on a group of Stormtroopers with just his trusty staff. When pressed a little further, Edwards revealed that Jedha is home to a precious natural resource that’s been hiding in plain sight in Star Wars lore since the beginning.
When the teaser for the first stand-alone film in the new Star Wars anthology series, Rogue One, was released back in April 2016, viewers got a glimpse of Oscar victor Felicity Jones as Rebel fighter Jyn Erso.

The new trailer gives more screen time to Felicity Jones’s Jyn Erso, Forrest Whitacker’s Saw Gerrera and also features the droid K-2SO voiced by Alan Tudyk.
