Star Wars: Rogue One is officially the first live-action standalone film in the franchise.
Here’s what to expect!
Filming begins this summer in London with a Dec. 16, 2016 release date.
Felicity Jones will star and…thats all we know.
This title seems to be an obvious nod to the films story.
But it would certainly be a step in the right direction.
It would be a correct step in terms of women and minorities in the galaxy far, far away.
You only have to take a look back the history ofStar Wars most elite starfighter squadron to see why.
There are already TONS of great stories involving the squadron that are easily adaptable to the big screen.
This is very important.
That will be impossible to truly decipher until more of the cast is announced.
Disney is publishing TWENTY this year.
I think the days of canon prudence are numbered.
Perhaps shell even be introduced in some way in the main installment.
Maybe even just a quick cameo where she says, Rogue Five, standing by.
Okay, yes, Im getting ridiculous.
Horn was an exemplary pilot who later decided to walk the path of the Jedi.
He became one of the New Jedi Orders most celebrated knights.
Of course, this would create an obvious parallel between Jones character and Luke Skywalker himself.
For a film series called Star Wars, that perspective hasnt yet been truly explored.
