On today’s buzz we have new photos and brief clips from the Rogue One press tour in Japan; several good interviews with cast members and director Gareth Edwards; more images from the preparation of the Rogue One World Premiere and more.

 

 

First we start with several interesting interviews from the last day.

 

Felicity Jones appeared on Access Hollywood:

 

 

 

And another interview with Collider.

 

 

 

 

 

Uproxx got a chance to speak with the awesome Ben Mendelsohn:

 

Did you have to audition, or were you asked?

Gareth. No, it was Gareth Edwards.

And then you needed approval from Lucasfilm?

Well, you know, that’s the way the casting goes. I mean, that would always be the way the casting goes and it wouldn’t matter who it was from anyone in the world.

 

 

 

 

 

EW has a new inside Rogue One video this time about K-2SO:

 


 

 

 

 

Another Alan Tudyk interview, this time with Fandango.

 

 

 

 

 

 

And more on K-2SO.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fandango also has a cool interview with Gareth Edwards, discussing what films inspired Rogue One.

 

 

 

 

 

LA Times interviews Gareth Edwards:

Next is this priceless video from 2014 where you can see Rogue One star Riz Ahmed and Donlad Glover, who will play Lando Calrissian in the Han Solo spin-off movie rap together (via Comicbook):

 

 

 

 

 

A very cool mash-up trailer made by Zak Snyder:

 

 

You probably recall that during the filming for The Force Awakens, Snyder and Bad Robot exchanged several crossover photos between Star Wars and the DC universe.

 

 

 

Several very cool Rogue One sketch cards:

 

 

 

 

 

K-2SO is now available in the Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes game.
