Rogue One: A Star Wars Story Lands on the Cover of EW
EW has released their cover for the week and it features none other than Felicity Jones and Diego Luna from the upcoming Rogue One: A Star Wars Story front and center! The magazine also confirms the long-standing rumor that the original big bad in the galaxy, Darth Vader, will return for the film. Check it out in the gallery below!
Additional details on Rogue One will be released throughout the week, though one new piece of information we now know is that the Imperial Walkers (seen in both the trailer, and now the cover) are actually modified AT-ATs called AT-ACTs, a taller and slimmer version of the walker used for shipping cargo instead of combat.
Lucasfilm previously announced a Rogue One: A Star Wars Story panel on Friday, July 15 for the upcoming Star Wars Celebration that will feature director Gareth Edwards and Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy, along with “some special guests.” Stay tuned for our coverage straight from the ExCeL London Exhibition Centre as we learn even more about the first standalone Star Wars!
Rogue One tells the story of resistance fighters who have united to steal plans to the dreaded Death Star. Felicity Jones leads the cast alongside Mads Mikklesen, Diego Luna (Milk, Killing Them Softly), Ben Mendelsohn (Bloodline, Mississippi Grind), Donnie Yen (Ip Man, Blade II), Jiang Wen (Let the Bullets Fly, Devils on the Doorstep), Forest Whitaker (The Last King of Scotland), Alan Tudyk (Firefly) who plays a performance-capture character in the film, and Riz Ahmed (Nightcrawler, Four Lions).
John Knoll, the Academy Award-winning visual effects supervisor who currently serves as chief creative officer at Industrial Light & Magic, is executive producing the film along with Simon Emanuel (The Dark Knight Rises, Fast & Furious 6) and Jason McGatlin (Tintin, War of the Worlds). Kathleen Kennedy and Tony To (“Band of Brothers,” “The Pacific”) are on board to produce with John Swartz (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) attached to co-produce. It was also recently confirmed that Alexandre Desplat (The Grand Budapest Hotel, The King’s Speech) will be providing the score.
Directed by Gareth Edwards, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is set for release on December 16, 2016.
