Leaked Rogue One Info is FAKE! Here’s the REAL DEAL!
A big dump of information regarding Rogue One: A Star Wars Story was leaked online yesterday, but Disney is now claiming much of it was inaccurate. Good thing we have sources who specialize in weeding out the truths from the half-truths. After the jump we clear the air and reveal the accurate information regarding Rogue One. SPOILERS AHEAD! You’re welcome, Disney!
- Forrest Whittaker portrays Judo Cast. He is a Mandalorian warrior who aides Jyn on her quest.
- Mads Mikkelson portrays Marek Erso. He is Jyn‘s father and the head engineer on the Death Star project.
- Besides Mon Mothma, the following Rebels will also appear: Bail Organa (Jimmy Smitts), Carlist Rieekan (Michael Fassbender), Jan Dodonna (Jeff Bridges), Crix Madine (Jai Courtney), Wedge Antilles (Jensen Ackles), and Jek Porkins (Kevin Smith).
- It is revealed that Porkins is Temmin “Snap” Wexley‘s real father.
- Peter Dinklage portrays Bistan while Eunice Olumide is playing Kung Pao.
- The Death Troopers are cyborgs similar to the Guavian Death Gang.
- Jyn Erso has a dog early in the film. It is the first canine to appear in a Star Wars film, and the first Force sensitive pet. The dog helps Donnie Yen’s blind character walk in a heartfelt scene.
- Darth Vader mentions a disturbance in the Force and refers to “her”. It could mean that Jyn is Force sensitive, go figure.
- Darth Vader is only in the last 15 minutes of the film and he isn’t the person in the bacta tank.
- Princess Leia, C-3PO, and R2-D2 can be seen passing by in the background of the very last scene wearing a costume similar to her look in A New Hope. You cannot see her face but someone mentions, “The princess is departing”.
- Besides Chopper, none of the Rebels crew are seen nor mentioned. Chopper is briefly seen departing the Ghost, which can be seen in the background of final scene on Alderaan.
