7. Forest Whitaker Is Never Leaving That One Location

Forest Whitaker's Saw Gerrera once again gets to deliver the final lines of a Rogue One trailer, which reaffirms the thinking that he's going to be a character who lends a lot of his wisdom and experience to Jyn.

What it also confirms, however, is that we're only going to see him in one location, and he isn't gonna make it out of there alive.

Throughout all of the trailers we've only seen him in that one cave-like location, quite possibly on Jedha, and his panicked tones and stark message here fit with the idea of him dying not long afterwards. He's a grizzled battle vet, so this is going to be one battle too far for him, and it'll be a small but fairly key role overall.
