Gareth Edwards to direct Star Wars spinoff

Exciting news since it is also given a release date around one year after episode 7. With Abrams directing and all this Star Wars coming it makes for exciting possibilities. Speculation on what character you'd like to see with their own solo movie or the one you feel Disney will choose.

Boba Fett. Or just adapt the The Force Unleashed.

Obi-Wan Kenobi, between 3rd and 4th. Ewan Macgregor. It be noice.

I'd personally see more of a character we didn't see that much of already. I think a very young Yoda would be very interesting. I'd also be up for Boba Fett.

Everyone's expecting a Boba Fett. But I like the idea of a young Yoda. Maybe young Quagon? With Dooku as his master? Could be interesting.

What movies has he directed that favor this undertaking?

Maybe they could do a Prequel to the prequels. KOTOR would be an awesome story to adapt.

Really not a fan of the Fetts.

I wouldn't mind seeing a young Han Solo, or some sort of "Order 66" movie.

Ideally though?

Kotor.

So this movie, it's called Rogue One, is set between Episodes 3 and 4 and is about the Rebels stealing the Death Star plans.

The official synopsis: “A rogue band of resistance fighters unite to steal the Death Star plans and bring new hope to the galaxy.”

Here is the leaked teaser (watch it before it's taken down):

YouTube video

And some concept art:

And from the sounds of it there won't be any Jedi involved in this movie.

Yep.

Here is a far clearer version of the teaser BTW:

Wonder if we will see Kyle Katarn then.

My thoughts exactly. How does this man keep getting work? Monsters was terrible and Godzilla was very uunderwhelming.

I enjoyed his Godzilla movie only thing i disliked about it was when they were about to show a monster showdown they cut away, Besides things like that it was a good movie.

Apparently this will be an Anthology
