I like the way Disney has worked Alan Tudyk as Big Hero 6 into the movie. ---

Vader: Confirmed. I love that shot of the heroine walking across that gantry as the TIE fighter rises in front of her. And also the shot of the Death Star eclipsing the sun. I wonder, is some of this story set on Alderaan? Must be. ---

Must be. I would think so because I read an article that said Jimmy Smits was reprising his role as Bail Organa. Also, 'tis a good looking trailer. I am all the more excited. ---

> [@Bijou\_Drains](#): > > Is this one a remake of episode 5 or 6? Ha ha! So hilarious! Anyway, it’s not a sequel to _The Force Awakens_. This is a stand-alone movie set just weeks before the original Star Wars, telling the story about how the Death Star plans got into the hands of the Rebel Alliance. To orient yourself: Expect a scene at the end of _Rogue One_ that will immediately lead into the beginning of the first _Star Wars_ (Ep IV, A New Hope). ---

> [@GuanoLad](#): > > To orient yourself: Expect a scene at the end of _Rogue One_ that will immediately lead into the beginning of the first _Star Wars_ (Ep IV, A New Hope). Or to put it more plainly, expect a scene where a young Princess Leia Organa is told to deliver the stolen plans to General Kenobi on Tatooine. (I really wouldn’t be surprised if some tech allows ILM to insert a young Fisher into the film.) ---

> [@Lobot](#): > > (I really wouldn’t be surprised if some tech allows ILM to insert a young Fisher into the film.) As much as I would love to see this, with a double who can be digitally augmented (Mae Whitman remains my first choice), more likely they’ll use Jimmy Smits as Bail Organa for this part. ---

That thought crossed my mind. Smits is definitely in it, and I think he was spotted on the Yavin IV set. But there have been persistent rumours of a digital Cushing making an appearance, so it’s not out of the question. ---
