The countdown for Gareth Edwards' Rogue One: A Star Wars Story has begun,
and speculation has been kicked up a notch with a new, and possibly spoilery,
rumor about the yet unknown character Forest Whitaker will play in the spinoff,
which is set just prior to the events of the 1977 Star Wars.
- Forest Whitaker’s character uses a cane.
- It appears he has one leg and uses a cane as a crutch to walk.
- He appears to be a veteran of some battles, but it isn’t clear if he lost
his leg fighting in the Clone Wars or against the Empire.
- Based on a differentiated code name from the rest of the rebels in the
movie, it appears he is likely good but maybe a bounty hunter affiliated type
(more on this later).
- He seems to be a “good guy” in Rogue One.
- He has a cape and his costume is a hodgepodge of different things (think
of someone you might see at Maz’s castle).
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story goes
into new territory, exploring the galactic struggle from a ground-war
perspective while maintaining that essential Star
Wars feel
that fans have come to know.
In addition to Whitaker, the highly anticipated film also stars Felicity Jones (The Theory of Everything), Diego Luna
(Milk), Ben Mendelsohn (Bloodline), Donnie Yen (Ip Man), Alan Tudyk (Firefly), Mads
Mikkelsen (Hannibal), Jiang Wen (Let The Bullets Fly), and Riz Ahmed (Nightcrawler).
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story opens on December 16.
