Stunning Batch Of ROGUE ONE Stills Feature Most Of The Main Characters And A New Paradise Planet
EW has released a huge batch of images from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. They provide new glimpses of our heroes and villains, as well as a new planet that will serve as the location of a key battle scene...
Entertainment Weekly's great Rogue One coverage continues with some lovely new stills from the Gareth Edwards-directed Star Wars prequel. They give us brand new looks at most of the new team of rebel fighters (Jyn, Baze, Chirrut, Bodhi Rook), as well as squads of Deathtroopers and classic Stormtroopers. Plus, there are a couple of stunning shots of a new planet where one of the key battles in the film will be fought.
“There’s this sort of South Pacific, tropical paradise planet that subconsciously leads into some of the imagery associated with World War II,” Edwards explains. “We went to lots of different places around the world, and one of them was the Maldives. When you're shooting Stormtroopers in paradise, you have the best job in the world, you know? You can't really deny it at that point.”
You can check out most of the images below, but head on over to EW to see a new BTS snap, and yesterday's character portraits in full color.
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is set for release on December 16th, 2016. Head on over to EW for more.
