By now most of us have seen the trailer of the first Star Wars Spinoff, but there are many more rumors than there are actual facts about the film. One thing that has been confirmed is the character list to feature in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
Entertainment Weekly revealed Rogue One's characters in their latest cover story. Here is the list:
- Captain Cassian Andor, played by Diego Luna. He is a Rebel officer who team up with Erso.
- Bodhi Rook, played by Riz Ahmed. He is the Rebel's lead pilot.
- Baze Malbus, played by Jiang Wen. He is the close friend of Chirrut Imwe
- K-2S0, played by Alan Tudyk. Referred as K-2, this droid described by director Gareth Edwards as "Chewbacca."
- Director Orson Krennic, played by Ben Mendelsohn. An ambitious Imperial officer.
- Jyn Erso, played by Felicity Jones. She is the character that we already knew, and Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy called her "a kind of Joan of Arc".
- Gelen Erso, played by Mads Mikkelsen. Galen is Jyn's father who is a scientist which work is wanted by the Rebels and Empire.
Though other characters outside of the list have yet to be officially confirmed, according to some sources, Darth Vader is indeed in the film and is rumored to play a large part in the upcoming movie.
