We’re just under two weeks out from the release of Gareth Edwards’ Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, and as the anticipation continues to mount, each new glimpse into the throwback return to a galaxy far, far away is more enticing. Much has been said about the “lived-in” quality of the film, one that rightfully embraces its place in the timeline, taking place in the days just prior to the events of 1977’s Star Wars: A New Hope. With that comes creatures (many of which we already have action figures for) that are created by skilled craftsmen and women rather than pixels created in a computer. Tonight comes a new featurette that takes a look at just that, along with a new TV spot… “Worth It.” Check ’em out!
ROGUE ONE: A STAR WARS STORY follows a group of unlikely heroes in a time of conflict who band together on a mission to steal the plans to the Death Star, the Empire’s ultimate weapon of destruction. This key event in the Star Wars timeline brings together ordinary people who choose to do extraordinary things, and in doing so, become part of something greater than themselves.
ROGUE ONE: A STAR WARS STORY is directed by Gareth Edwards and stars Felicity Jones, Diego Luna, Ben Mendelsohn, Donnie Yen, Mads Mikkelsen, Alan Tudyk, Riz Ahmed, with Jiang Wen and Forest Whitaker. Kathleen Kennedy, Allison Shearmur and Simon Emanuel are producing, with John Knoll and Jason McGatlin serving as executive producers. The story is by John Knoll and Gary Whitta, and the screenplay is by Chris Weitz and Tony Gilroy.
ROGUE ONE: A STAR WARS STORY arrives in theaters everywhere on December 16th in 3D, Real D 3D and IMAX 3D!
