Principal Photography Begins On ROGUE ONE
First Standalone Star Wars Movie 12-16-16...
Lucasfilm has announced that their first film in the new standalone Star Wars stories series, Rogue One, has begun principal photography. Gareth Edwards (Godzilla, Monsters) is directing Rogue One, which tells the story of resistance fighters who have united to steal plans to the dreaded Death Star. The film is produced by Kathleen Kennedy and is slated for a December 16, 2016 release.
“Rogue One takes place before the events of Star Wars: A New Hope and will be a departure from the saga films but have elements that are familiar to the Star Wars universe,” says Kathleen Kennedy. “It goes into new territory, exploring the galactic struggle from a ground-war perspective while maintaining that essential Star Wars feel that fans have come to know. Gareth is such an innovative director and I’m so excited to be working with him and the extraordinary ensemble cast he’s selected for ‘Rogue One.’”
Rogue One's cast has also been announced and will include Felicity Jones (The Theory of Everything); Diego Luna (Elysium), Ben Mendelsohn (Bloodline, upcoming Mississippi Grind), Donnie Yen (Ip Man, Blade II), Jiang Wen (Let the Bullets Fly, Devils on the Doorstep), Forest Whitaker (The Butler), Mads Mikkelsen (The Hunt, Casino Royale), Riz Ahmed (Nightcrawler), and Alan Tudyk, who plays a performance-capture character in Rogue One (stars in the soon-to-be-released Con Man series and Trumbo).
