ROGUE ONE is about the reality of war, the moral grey area between the good and bad guys.

Gareth Edwards: real, subjective, and very grey theme leading to black and white of ANH. Complicated, layered. Picture of commandos shown.

Felicity Jones will play a rebel soldier.

Rebels Report ‏@RebelsReport 3h3 hours ago
Felicity plays a rebel soldier. Real person with flaws. Fear, humour, warmth and Felicity will demonstrate this

Edwards calls Felicity "the complete package." She was a SW fan and "dropped everything to come onboard.

Very interesting. No mention of bounty hunters. It sounds like more of a paramilitary operation but Felicity Jones character must be someone of importance.

Oh yeah, still no word on Josh Trank's Star Wars movie. It's supposed to release May 2017 so some details should be released fairly soon, I would think.

Apparently he has a coke problem and no-showed at the panel today.

IN.

This sounds promising.

Man I had lost some of my passion for Star Wars but between this, the Force Awakens trailer, and the Battlefront reveal I'm fully ****ing back in 100%.

This week has really rejuvenated my love for the series...

I never lost any love, but before this week, I didn't think it was possible for me to get any more geeked about Star Wars. I was WAY wrong.

It's only going to get better. o:-)

Is Star Wars, porn for geeks? I've seen the original 3 but none of the newer 3. Just seems the magic wore off once I became involved with pussy.

First R rated Star Wars flick? A gritty "Platoon" style war flick set in the SWU?


I'm in!

ROFLROFL

There is exactly zero chance this gets an R rating.

Great cast with Diego Luna, Felicity Jones and Ben Mendelsohn as the antagonist (who I think is likely to be Tarkin).

Will Riz Ahmed be a Clone War soldier or even Boba Fett?

Keg, you may have been going for this:

Forest Whitaker, Mads Mikkelsen and Alan Tudyk joined the cast.

I wonder if Alan will play a CGI character, as he's quite an accomplished voice actor as well?

No more "Anthology" in the title.

They're being referred to as "A Star Wars Story" moving forward.

yes please

That would certainly give his character far more weight

Almost as excited about this as the EPVII. I really like the whole Firefly, band of misfits, caper style that we got with Rebels. This looks like it might be somewhat similar.

Star Wars is just going to absolutely take over Hollywood the next 7-10 years. Can't wait.

Not just Star Wars. Disney. Between Lucasfilm and Marvel Studios they may end up with 5 or more of the top 10 all time grossers, depending on what Cameron does with Avatars 2-4.

I doubled my investment in Disney.

Can't wait to see the $$$$$$$ flow in.

GIVE ME PORKINS OR GIVE ME DEATH

Just have him in the background of a couple scenes eating.

I win. This looks like its going to be a different gritty take on Star Wars.

but rated PG13

Revenge of the Sith was PG13.

Peter Cushing Will be Digitally Recreated for Rogue One

I don't buy this report for one second.

Tarkin was clearly portrayed by an actor in ROTS and the expense versus phony VFX aren't worth the money or the trouble. People will have no problem buying into a new actor's portrayal of Tarkin, just as they don't have an issue with Rebels. Plus, it would be opening Pandora's Box if Tarkin is to appear in any other Star Wars movies.

Plus, Ben Mendelsohn looks close enough to Tarkin and he's been cast in an unspecified role.

Mads Mikkelson on Rogue One:

"It is very important role, that's as much as I can say. No, my character is actually not a bad guy, and then I can not say more. I can also say that the movie will be shot in Iceland and England. And the filming will last for three months."
