Gareth Edwards Says To "Expect The Unexpected" From STAR WARS: ROGUE ONE

[Remy Danton]

Or as we now know it'll be called; Star Wars Anthology: Rogue One. In this new video interview from Star Wars Celebration Anaheim, directer Gareth Edwards shares a few more details about the movie. By the sounds of things we won't be getting another clear-cut good vs. evil story anyway...

Yesterday during his Star Wars Celebration Anaheim panel, Godzilla director Gareth Edwards revealed the first official details for his standalone Star Wars movie, and in the following video interview with Flicks And The City, he elaborates further. Going on what Edwards says here we can probably expect a slightly more adult journey to the galaxy far, far away when Rogue One hits theaters next year.



A band of resistance fighters unite for a daring mission to steal the Death Star plans. Star Wars: Rogue One, written by Gary Whitta and Chris Weitz, will be directed by Gareth Edwards. It’s scheduled for release on December 16, 2016.

I'm probably as hyped or MORE hyped for this than Episode VII. It's what I've always wanted....a grittier, ground based, military focused Star Wars film. Rebel soldiers, stormtroopers, starships and capital ships...Saving Private Ryan/Zero Dark Thirty/Black Hawk Down but in a galaxy far far away
