Star Wars: Rogue One - 10 Things We Can't Wait To See

The Death Star is the most consistent plot point of all the films. While feelings over the galaxy destroying weapon were mixed in The Force Awakens, thematically it makes sense in focusing on the greater context and narrative of the Star Wars story.

Step back to where Rogue One occurs within the timeline, and the theft of the original plans is easily the most talked about story element. From the opening crawl of A New Hope, the first Rebel victory has been something all fans have wanted to see for nearly 40-years.

As the single most identifiable object in all of Star Wars, witnessing the beginnings of the Death Star is fitting for the first anthology film. Fans know the outcome of the battle station but little is known about it's start and the steps taken to make it the ultimate power in the galaxy. Rogue One will finally reveal those moments and first steps with characters like Galen Erso and Director Orson Krennic.
