One of the coolest parts of the prequels was how Lucas refused to show the stretched stars of hyperspace, leaving that for a reveal in the original movie no matter what order you watched the series in.

Rogue One won't follow that rule, which is fine as it's a "Star Wars Story", seen here when the U-Wing makes the jump (which is edited to look like it's part of the city collapse sequence, but given lightspeed logistics obviously won't). Cooly, we're seeing it out of focus from behind the pilot, which is a fair twist.
