Rogue One trailer released

Disney released a new “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” trailer online, ahead of the film's release later this year. Unlike the trailers for “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”, they're not trying to hide the plot for this one.  It clearly lays out that Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones) has been recruited by the rebels because her father (Mads Mikkelsen) was kidnapped by the Empire to build the Death Star.

For those unfamiliar with Rogue One, the story takes place before the events of “A New Hope” and centres on a group of rebels who are sent to retrieve the plans for the Death Star. 

The movie has had its production troubles, but hopefully those haven't stopped director Gareth Edwards from realizing an exciting vision that finally paints a Star Wars picture as a war film rather than space fantasy.

The film opens December 16 and also stars Diego Luna, Ben Mendelsohn, Donnie Yen, Jiang Wen, Alan Tudyk, Riz Ahmed, and Forest Whitaker.
