A stand-alone tale that takes place before the events of 1977's Star Wars: Episode IV — A New Hope, the action-heavy Rogue One follows a team of Rebels tasked with gathering intel on the first Death Star, which in the trailer is shown as dangerously close to completion. Their new hope in stopping the Empire? Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones), a forger, thief, and all-around youth gone wild who's skilled with a blaster, and clearly has no qualms about taking out a Stormtrooper or two. Don't look for any Force-talk here; Rogue One is a war film, and Erso is a clear-eyed soldier. "This is a rebellion, isn't it?" she tells Mon Mothma, the leader last seen in 1983's Return of the Jedi. "I rebel."
