Star Wars: 10 Things You Need To Know About Rogue One
7. Itll Be "Very Natural And Very Subjective
Its basically in an era where there are no Jedi, where theyre all but extinct, Gareth Edwards said at Star Wars Celebration last year, describing the setting of Rogue One between Episodes III and IV, before adding its about the fact that Gods not coming to save us. Were on our own and we have to do this ourselves. The word that we say the most is real [] It will feel very natural and subjective. he added, stressing the importance of Rogue Ones position as the least fantastical chapter of Star Wars to date. This is the story of the ordinary people who tried to save the universe while the Jedi were away. And with ordinary people comes shifting morality. This isnt the black and white battle of good vs. evil seen in the previous Star Wars films. No, Rogue One is, as Edwards puts it, very grey, and something that leads to that polarised event that is A New Hope. Its about the realities of war. Good guys are bad, bad guys are good its a complicated place to set a movie. It comes down to a group of individuals who dont have special powers but have to bring hope and justice to the galaxy, Edwards summarised. So it's a down-to-earth war film in the Star Wars universe focused on ordinary people and their conflicted morals? That sounds very watchable.
