Star Wars: Rogue One - 10 Most Hotly Anticipated Moments
2. Finding Out Who Lives And Who Dies
You might have noticed, but there aren't that many characters from Rogue One knocking around during the events of A New Hope. Okay, so there's a logical explanation for this given the films are being made almost forty years apart, but still. There needs to be an in-universe explanation, right?
Many fans have speculated that the mission to retrieve the plans for the Death Star must be a tragic one, with nearly everyone involved in Rogue One sacrificing their life in the process. Others wonder if there isn't a different explanation for the disappearance of Rogue One. Perhaps following their success they become the most wanted criminals in the galaxy and have no choice but to flee?
Whatever the reality, finding out what happens and how exactly Rogue One transitions into the events of A New Hope is one of the film's key mysteries.
