First Look On Set Photos Of Rogue One Revealed!

By Justin Marsh

Three years ago Disney paid the small sum of $4 billion to purchase Lucasfilm, and the company is now aiming to make that investment back with interest. Not only is Disney producing a Star Wars sequel trilogy to continue the core saga, there’s also a series of standalone ‘Anthology’ films in development that will tell additional stories within the Star Wars universe. The first of these projects is called Star Wars Anthology: Rogue One and is being directed by Godzilla helmsman Gareth Edwards for a December 2016 release.

If we all remember, back in June, one of our Rogue One sources said the following:

"Right now at Pinewood Studios the “White Vans” are getting a fresh coat of gray paint as they will be reused in the film. The landers appear to be pretty much the same as 40 years before Finn gets in one; it just has slightly different coloring on the outside."

As for what the scene in question will cover, that is anyone’s guess for now. The troops appear to have landed on the planet in some form of craft and are investigating their surroundings. Since we know that the main crux of the narrative will detail the mission to steal the Death Star plans, it’s possible that this squadron is tracking the Rebels in an attempt to reacquire their blueprints. As to this scene being on Yavin IV or Dantooine, is still not confirmed as of yet.
