rogue one: Last News

Flashback looks back on fascinating stories or artifacts of the past, not necessarily tied to today’s news but still relevant and sometimes extra-significant in relation to today’s ever-evolving context. As we all know, “Rogue One: A Star Wars Movie” underwent major reshoots, apparently to salvage the film.

For those who remember, 2016’s “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” had a bit of a troubled production.  Gareth Edwards directs the film, but Disney brought in Tony Gilroy, already an uncredited writer on the movie, to do reshoots. Now Freddie Prinze Jr., voice actor of Kanan Jarrus on “Star Wars Rebels,” has a bold claim.

OK, by now, if you’re a fan of Lucasfilm’s “Andor” on Disney+, you’re probably well aware that Sergeant Ruescott Melshi (Duncan Pow) recently returned to the series. Who, you ask? Well, as you’re aware, “Andor” is a prequel series to “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,” and in that film, Melshi is one of the Rebel Alliance lieutenants in the film aiding Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) and the Rogue One squadron.

Andy Serkis already made an impact in the “Star Wars” galaxy as Supreme Leader Snoke in “The Force Awakens” and “The Last Jedi.” So, a bit of a surprise for “Star Wars” fans when the actor showed up recently as Kino Loy, one of Cassian Andor’s fellow inmates in “Andor,” airing on Disney+ now. And, of course, those same fans have now started to speculate about a connection between the two characters.

With less than a month to go before Star Wars: Andor’s three-episode premiere on Disney Plus where the stories of the early years of the heroic but dark rebel spy Cassian Andor will be told. Andor is set to take place in the year 5 BBY with BBY meaning before the battle of Yavin aka the first Death Star. So Andor takes place five years before the events of Rogue One and A New Hope as both of those movies take place in 0 BBY.

Rogue One – despite the events of that film making it an unlikely premise.Jones’ performance in the 2016 standalone film drew acclaim – including a four-star NME review which called her “terrific” – though the story seemingly left little room open for Jyn to develop in future films.Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, however, Jones said: “I just keep saying that reincarnation is totally possible in the Star Wars universe.

Black Mirror director Toby Haynes is set to helm a new Star Wars Rogue One spin-off series.Haynes is replacing Tony Gilroy in the director’s chair for the Disney+ show, which sources claim is due to coronavirus-related travel issues.As Deadline reports, sources say that Gilroy was uncertain whether to travel from his home in New York to the UK to undertake directing duties for the show, which is about to begin production.Haynes is set to direct the first three episodes of the show, having already reportedly been tapped up for future episodes in the series.The new show is set to revolve around Cassian Andor (a character that Diego Luna will play once more, after doing so in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story from 2016).
