Star Wars: Rogue One New Trailer Breakdown - 29 Things You Need To See

3. Vader Is Pissed

F**k yes! This is the Vader I wanna see, and it's the best look yet at the return of Anakin Skywalker.

It's the most we've seen of him since his return was confirmed, and the first shot that doesn't involve him just standing there. Instead, he's marching into wherever that room is, and looks awfully pissed.

A theory that I'm completely on-board with is that Vader kills Krennic towards the end of the movie. Krennic is the one running the show here, but we're going to see a bit of an unleashed Vader too, and when things go wrong, the Director will be first in the firing (see: Force-choking) line, leading up to Vader's attitude at the start of Episode IV, and the arrival of Tarkin.

Also, it's hard to make out here, but it does look like they've gone back to having that red tint to Vader's eyes, which is a very nice touch.
