Will Rogue One Get A Sequel? Here’s What Kathleen Kennedy Says

You can just drop into Rogue One and not feel like you’re being pulled along into something you need to make a commitment to. Gareth Edwards, the director of “Rogue One” confirmed the issue saying that if ever there would be a sequel to the film, it would be directed by George Lucas.

Star Wars fans are getting a double dose of exclusive “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” footage leading up the December 16 release!

But this deal in particular is good for Twitter simply because people love Star Wars. If that’s the case, we should all just hope that Lucasfilm doesn’t take the easy way out and remake A New Hope instead.

The film has already proven to be a hot ticket for fans, with excited movie-goers helping Rogue One secure the second-highest first day of pre-sales in USA box office history after tickets were released on Monday (28Nov16).

Telling the story of the rebels who stole the plans to the Death Star, it finds Felicity Jones’s Jyn Erso recruited to the Alliance to undertake the daring mission. “I’m wanting to make Jyn a bad ass”.

It certainly helps back up that this is more of a war movie than past Star Wars films, yet Luna says it really has “a little bit of everything” from emotional scenes to stormtrooper battles.

From Lucasfilm comes the first of the Star Wars standalone films, “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story”, an all-new epic adventure.

And those that can’t wait until its release on December 16 to get the inside track are going to have to turn to Twitter. After one day on the market, “Rogue One” has becomethe second highest first day of pre-sale tickets in the history of the domestic box office.
