Star Wars Rogue One: 8 Things We Learned From New International Trailer
3. Director Orson Krennic's Fate
Since first seeing the arrival of Darth Vader in a chamber with Orson Krennic, fans knew it probably wasn't good news for the Director. Chances are, things don't end particularly well for poor Krennic. As the main antagonist of Rogue One, Krennic will occupy most of the time as the sole villain as he attempts to climb the Imperial hierarchy.
Krennic will most likely deal with setback after setback during his brief time in the Star Wars galaxy. Events will most likely transpire with him kidnapping Galen Erso and forcing him into Imperial service. He'll then discover Galen has sent out a coded message to the Rebel Alliance about the Death Star while possibly sabotaging the battle station and preventing it from being fully operational. Add in the Rebels eventually stealing the plans and Krennic's career goes up in flames.
By the time Darth Vader rolls onto the scene it's entirely too late for Krennic. While his motives with Jedha are unknown, a failed weapons test on the planet is also a strong possibility. With the apparent failure of the test, the Emperor dispatches Vader to get a handle on things. The latest international trailer shows Vader clenching his hand in a familiar Force grip posture. Fans will also notice this is in the chamber we've seen Vader in with Krennic. It's obvious now how Krennic will meet his end.
