Short Star Wars: Rogue One Teaser Already Leaked on Youtube
The Rogue One panel at Star Wars Celebration Anaheim was not streamed live. Director Gareth Edwards showed a brief teaser for the movie that already leaked on Youtube. Check it out…
The video is with pretty low quality but you get the idea. Hope they will release it officially shortly after.
A band of resistance fighters unite for a daring mission to steal the Death Star plans in Star Wars anthology film, Rogue One #RogueOne.

OMG, it’s gonna be epic.
I saw the teaser, it was dope!
Ladies & gentlemen, “Mr. 1986 Guy” checkin’ in.
Can anyone make out what it says below Rogue One? A sub sub title maybe?
Anthology. It seems every spin off will have the Anthology subtitle.
I like that. Good way to differentiate them from the main films.
not such a good way to differentiate them from the Beatles tv special though.
This also could take place after Tarkin when the Death Star left Geonosis’ orbit
Thanks for the spoilers…”face Palm”
How are this spoilers?
he was probably half way through reading tarkin
That was no freaking spoiler! Have you ever seen a movie called A New Hope?? SPOLIER ALERT! The Death Star goes to Alderaan!!!!
“Anthology”?
I think you guys might be right after seeing it a couple more times. It’s hard to see.
I like it
First thoughts here, sounds exciting. Makes me even more scared for Kanan and Ezra though. He says the jedi are all gone. But unlike Obi Wan and Yoda, the rebellion are aware of our K & E. Have been quietly hoping they might survive the rebel series but this puts that in severe doubt
I don’t think this director knows or cares much about what other parts of the franchise are doing. Just saying.
Lucasfilm as a whole does care though. They have a whole team put together to keep canon cohesive. So I don’t think this will contradict Rebels.
Disney care. He is not allowed to contradict. He must keep new canon intact.
Yet another throwaway comment from an clueless bell end.
Maybe so. All of this new canon is a tie in and I’m guessing this will take place weeks or months before Ep IV but that doesn’t mean either one of those characters are dead, yet. I wouldn’t be surprised if one of the characters from Rebels turned up in this movie though.
Can someone tell me what was in the trailer? It won’t work for me
A view down of a tropical forest and moving camera through it. Then the camera is brought up, looking forwards, through a clearing of the trees, where you see a very close view of the Death Star. Then it goes dark, logo comes up, Rebel solders screaming, and the logo goes out.
Don’t forget about the Tie Fighter(s) headed to the Death Star.
Is the photo at the top of this page concept art?
Yes.
What on Earth is that? Are they going to make it adult-oriented and R-rated? That would be stupid.
What did you see in here that gives you the idea that it’s going to be an R-rated movie?
No hint of the cutesy G-rated prequel tone and the screaming during the title screen seemed kinda horror movie like
yeah, because Anakin getting burned in lava and screaming while his arms and legs were chopped off was totally G-rated…. right???
Well I suppose even though he lost his cool, he kept his head in the steamy situation when he was disarmed …. 😀 punpunpunpunpunpun
The screaming suggests it.
don’t look into it. Just raving fanboy wishes.
I really, really want an R-rated Star Wars movie. Please, let us have at least one R-rated, dark film. Throw us a bone.
We got Rebels, which I like, but, now let’s get something for adults too. What’s the deal with that?
actually, perrymoon, I get the feeling that Rebels is for adults… that’s why they’re ramming Ralph McQuarrie down our throats. Kids these days don’t realize what they’re choking on.
Nobody is ramming Ralph McQuarrie down any throat. His designs are part of what made Starwars what it was. Overused repeated descriptions/ideas like “ramming down our throats”, “it won’t work on film” and “his vision” are boring, lame, repetitive and unoriginal and usually don’t serve the poster’s argument very well when used. Regardless, that cartoon show was purposely designed for kids no matter how you slice it though many adults will enjoy it and glance over the more silly/cringe-worthy aspects of it.
I don’t know about ramming down our thoats, but I do feel there is an over reliance on sketches that didn’t make it into the film. Most people hated bb-8, but then found out it was inspired by his sketches and suddenly loved it. Why would we use rejected sketches of r2-d2 when we have actual r2-d2. I love his work and I even love what they have done with it so far, but I do hope we see less “oh don’t worry it’s based on concept art so it’s automatically good” type statements.
“Most people hated bb-8”
How big is your survey size? Have you spoken to most people?
Otherwise, you are talking out of your butt.
Ehehehehe bottom *insert slightly insane minions laugh*
I would prefer it if the SW universe is at least somewhat consistent in its tone.
What do you want in it to make it R rated?
I *don”t* want to make it R-rated. No intense graphic “Saving Private Ryan”-style combat sequences for instance.
Some how the reply thing messed up it was @mylord
completely agree–while that might be “coo”L its just not consistent at all with what starwars is or why people like it
Two words: Bounty Hunters.
Star Wars can’t be equal in tone in its different shapes. It’s never been like that. You want to please different generations. I think it’s ok to give the right tone to the right story. It’s a vast universe.
“It’s never been like that.”
Well, I strongly disagree with that, if we’re limiting ourselves to the live-action movies anyway. All of those, as well as the animated series and comics, are primarily aimed at 10-14 year olds.
The old EU did have some novels aimed at adults, but I dislike that notion.
The Empire Strikes Back and The Phantom Menace have very different tones.
Not really. I mean, yeah, sure they have different tones–insofar as they’re different chapters of the same story–but they have basically the same target audience, and that shows.
I never liked TPM being so kiddy. I would’ve preferred ANH’s tone.
You think Star Wars and Empire were aimed at 10-14 yr olds???
LOL
They obviously were–Lucas has said so himself at various occasions. It’s kinda sad when people try to delude themselves into think they were something else.
Star Wars shouldn’t be R-rated purely because it doesn’t need to be. The themes of Star Wars have never needed excessive gore or nudity to truly captivate the audience. There are a fair few death screams (mostly wilhelm screams) in Star wars and it never means R-rated.
You say it’s crap after seeing pretty much nothing. I don’t get why people form opinions on such little information.
Because he wants to be edgy with his hot takes. Hating things is so hip and cool.
No the story has been told we all know how it ends. No need for a movie
Opinions are like assholes. Everyone has one. (or is one in this case)
Concept art looks like they’re in Hotham Battle gear and using something similar to snowspeeders….
Hotham being the slightly colder sister city of Gotham I presume 😉
Actually it’s a mountain in Australia that’s usually covered in snow during the colder months.
Look it up if you don’t believe me. 😉
Sounds good!! But it looks a lot like a battlefront game!!! But let’s not get to conclusions yet!!
Looks amazing! My only question is, does this eliminate Asohka, Kannan, or Ezra from being in the movie? It appears that no jedi are involved (do they die/disappear in rebels tv show? :O). And I also love the saving private ryan feel and the blurred lines of whats right and wrong. How far do u go to steal those plans. Hiring bounty hunters could work into the movie because some characters (Felicity Jones?) might be against it, while the rest will work with any scum to get those plans. And Boba Fett could be a double agent on the team and turn because *SPOILERS* he already works for vader in the comics. And would Tarkin/Vader make appearances (recasting?). Lastly incorporating Wedge Antilles as a leader or somebody like Porkins would be cool. Cant Wait for Rogue One!
Set before ANH, so Wedge n Porkins are only pilots and not in command positions. We may see bothans but they stole the plans for the 2nd Death Star.
And we saw that in Shadows of the Empire, which is not canon anymore, unfortunately. 🙁
Definitely one of the better tales of the old EU, that one was.
Obviously it takes place just before A New Hope, then.
So maybe we’ll see some old friends in it, like r2-d2 and c3po or others?
OF COURSE R2-D2’s in it.
Who’d the rebels give the plans to for delivery to Leia?!?
As regards the rebels giving the plans to r2-d2, it depends where the cut-off point is.
Rogue One might connect right ‘into’ ANH.
Why are they being refereed to as resistance if it’s before a new hope?
This isn’t after return of the Jedi its before a new hope
Re-read my comment
Wow. this looks awful, I will not be seeing this! I can’t believe Disney has ruined Star Wars with giving us more Star Wars. – Self proclaimed Star Wars Fan
In all seriousness this looks bad ass. I can’t wait!
Have an open mind it just may surprise you
You obviously didn’t get the sarcasm. In fact his last sentence says that he was being sarcastic.
So who wants to bet we see Darth Vader?
lol Of course Vader’s in it.
Can you name another individual so integral to the Death Star? And they don’t even HAVE to use James Earl Jones’s voice if they don’t want to, either. Some VERY good sound-alikes are out there, like in that recent Coke commercial or whatever it was.
The role of Godzilla now played by The Death Star.
You mean it will only appear for 10 seconds in the entire film?
And have a whimpy squark of a scream for a monster it’s size that will do battle with giant radioactive EMP bursting monsters!!! :O much excite, such anticipation, many lols, wow
so this movie will right before ANH. felicity jones’ character will be the only survivor or live long enough to pass the plans off to leia.
Or she’s the first one to die to make room for a heroic man… Remember, this is Disney and Lucasfilm we’re talking about.
Place hand under tap and apply cold water and Aloh Vera to burn
has it been said she is NOT Leia?
https://youtu.be/NELx1y8cr1M
Better quality vid of the teaser^^^^^
I think this means we’re gonna see the emperor and darth vader
Loved it…but just read on underworld this is all CGI….So it wouldn’t be released as its not in the movie persay.
I’ll see it of course, but I would rather be looking forward to a move where Boba Fett escapes the sarlacc and proves once and for all why he’s the best bounty hunter in the galaxy. Maybe one day.
Retrotek, you remind me of the crybaby EU lovers who beg to bring back Mara Jade. Just sayin’.
I sense much anger in you. I hope you feel better soon.
Mmmm… the darkside i sense.
A Mara Jade Movie would kick ass.
Amen to that ^
Call me a fanboy all you want but there is a reason so many people like these EU characters. Disney was wise to start fresh but would be foolish not to draw heavily from these beloved Star Wars tales.
heir to the empire trilogy > prequel trilogy. IMO.
Nah, new characters and situations. I’m pretty sure both Thrawn and Jade will be Legends only. There is no need for either of them at this point.
But there’s no reason why they couldn’t have been either. Old characters in new situations would have breathed new life into them and introduced them to a new audience. It’s a win-win!
Their scenarios would be so different by then though that old EU fans will be upset that they aren’t what they used to be. Just leave them in Legends and create new characters.
It’s not the most original concept buuut thank goodness it’s not a Boba Fett movie! And I loved Godzilla so I’m looking forward to munching popcorn in front of this one 🙂
So can we officially drop the spin-off term and refer to these as anthology films from here on out?
So the few years around Episode IV and V have Rebels tv show, Marvel comic books, novels, and now this….
….. and yet nobody wants to even touch the old republic?
I really hope they do an Old Republic/Sith War movie at some point. So much potential in that timeline. Maybe even a movie about the founding of the Jedi order. The sky’s the limit.
Swing ALL the glow sticks!
I was really hoping this would be set either between ROTJ and TFA to explain the goings on as the rebellion becomes the resistance.
2018?
We’re going to get novels and comics that deal with that stuff.
To cover 30 years? They have a lot of time to fill. A movie would help out. Except they are stuck in the OT timeline. I’m half convinced the other two anthology movies will be set in the same timeline as this as well. I honestly either want a movie tied to the ST or a Sith War/Darth Bane/Old Republic film.
A movie will cover what? A couple of days in those 30 years?
A movie could cover months to years depending on the length of the story. Nice try though.
come on they cant leave us with a stupid bootleg wheres the hd veersion grrrrrr
There probably won’t be an “official” version before summer, simply because of the agreement between Disney and Paramount not to promote Rogue One before the premiere of Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation.
Whatever you do just please do NOT put a young Han, Chewie or Luke in the movie!!!!
Luke’s living on Tatooine and Han/Chewie are smuggling for Jabba when this film takes place.
Nice Teaser! wow what a sense of doom! I for one hope we don’t see much of any of the legacy characters… let it be it’s own story. a brief bit of the emperor or Vader may be okay.
looking forward to it.

TEASER IN BETTER QUALITY, LOOKS LIKE KASHYYYK.
Imagine if they were slaving Wookies to finish its construction.
And other Wookies joined in, in a space battle like in one of the original scripts.
Lumpy to the rescue!!!!!
Fairly lowfi but great energy from the crowd. Sounds like everyone at this con was having a lot of fun.
I like the idea of a movie showing how the plans were stolen, but it makes me somewhat disappointed that the Ghost crew aren’t the ones doing it. I thought since the beginning of Rebels that they were taking it there. I think that would have been a great way to tie the show into the films and make the characters matter much more to the larger story.
I Recorded a part of the Celebration Anehiem with really important news about Rouge One.Sorry if it seems I am self-advertising but I am doing it so you dudes can get some information for Rouge One!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtxeIWLFtus
That’s no moon…
That’s your momma!
Is there some possibility that we might see some Rebel faces on the movie?
Looks cool
Nice! The tone is really something new to the SW Galaxy,
as a side-note, do you guys think they’re gonna be aiming at the CW audience with this one?
Ha ha ha, no.
Couldn’t the character Yvonne from the Princess Leia comics end up a lead character!
Actually thats a pretty nice idea. Talk about tying everything together. That would be interesting.
It’s Evaan, and that theory has been presented several times in the last few weeks since the announcement of the first castmember.
If the box office taking exceeded expectation for any one of these Anthologies or all, will we get sequels?
This one sounds like it will be really gritty.
Another prequel, episode 3.5ish. Disappointing. I thought they were going to go away from the ot/pt plot lines. I’m sure I’ll love it but they missed a golden opprutunity
I wonder how the “bothans” will fit in?
They stole the plans for DS II not the first DS…
Can’t they do both
“Wars not make one great!” – Master Yoda
I’m hoping this is not just going to be a two hour propaganda war film!
A “propaganda” film set in a fictional war setting. You do realize that Yoda led the charge in episode II right?
Yeah and it completely contradicted OT yoda..
That’s not my real complaint about your comment. You see it as a bad thing that they make a legit “war” movie in the Star WARS universe rebels vs. stormtroopers and agents is long overdue.
I wish the other director trank came and announced his film,hoping it was about boba fett
I`m a little confused here – have they actually started filming Rogue One? (obviously if there`s footage already then they have started) – but I was under the impression that filming wouldn`1t start until May at the earliest.
They start shooting in July.
When are we getting a HD online version?
And who’s gonna play Tarkin’s role ? I think Ben Mendelsohn is going to play a villain and well, if CGI will not be used to recreate Peter Cushing’s face, that actor could be a nice choice…
I’d rather Tarkin be left alone. He can be mentioned, but I’d rather see other Imperials lead in the villain department in this film. It makes sense that Vader would appear since he sort of took the role as enforcer in this era, but Tarkin is more of a boardroom bad guy. Give us elite stormtroopers!
Use the guy that played the role at the end of ROTS. It was a walk on and he had no lines, but he looked the part and his mannerisms were perfect.
Is it too much to ask that we get some of this action?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgu8LJ75SBM
I’d lose it if Kyle Katarn is a part of this Seal-Team Six-esque operation.
The teaser’s bern yanked.
Anybody got another link?
Looks like Stormtroopers will hit what they aim at in this film. I’m completely excited!
did anyone download it and is able to share it with us?
I figured it out. Anyone who wants it i can email it to you!
Upon initially hearing about Disney’s intentions to make a series of spin-off films, I felt this was a mistake and would only serve to cheapen Star Wars.
This clip did everything to reinforce this viewpoint because it did not look nor feel like authentic Star Wars at all.
What is “authentic” Star Wars. Don’t get me wrong. The idea of a “gritty and realistic” (What?) Star Wars film does baffle me, but on the other hand Star Wars can have different vibes and characterizations.
Can anyobody understand, why they don’t release the trailer offically, at least…?
They know people were going to record it and upload. If it goes viral and beyond..they feel better. Its a marketing ploy and a way to get their feet wet.
With the Saga they know they have something sustainable, but with the spinoffs, this is new territory.
Its all part of the hype machine.
Just like the JJ leaks.
The music from John Wiliams is so nice
