            One of the most anticipated releases of the whole year has to be Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Ever since that first tease we got back in April, Star Wars fans and movie fans in general have been clamoring for another look at the new adventure set in the Star Wars universe. Today, we have another look at this film.

            Rogue One: A Star Wars Story follows a small group of rebels who try to steal the plans for the Death Star. It’s a major plot that surrounds itself with a fantastic cast including Felicity Jones, Forest Whitaker and Ben Mendelsohn, just to name a few. This trailer is visually beautiful and it’s essentially a war movie within the Star Wars franchise, which makes it a bold but exciting step into the future for Disney and Lucasfilm. It’s a phenomenal look at what this movie is set to accomplish and also gives the fans a tease of that one character we’ve been waiting to see in the previews for all this time.

            Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is directed by Gareth Edwards (Godzilla, Monsters) and stars Felicity Jones, Diego Luna, Forest Whitaker, Mads Mikkelson, Jian Wen, Donnie Yen, Alan Tudyk, Riz Ahmed and Ben Mendelsohn. The film opens everywhere December 16^th. Check out the official trailer below!
