The Star Wars story is back and this time it's not about Luke Skywalker or a new Jedi. Rogue One is the first Star Wars Anthology film, a standalone story set shortly before the events of the original Star Wars.
Rogue One centres around a group of rebel spies on a mission to steal design schematics for the Galactic Empire's new superweapon, the Death Star. The first film in Star Wars Anthology series, it is expected to be followed by stories focusing on Han Solo and Boba Fett.
Directed by Gareth Edwards, the film stars Felicity Jones in lead role with Diego Luna, Ben Mendelsohn, Donnie Yen, Mads Mikkelsen, Alan Tudyk, Riz Ahmed, Jiang Wen, and Forest Whitaker essaying key characters.
Will Rouge One: A Star Wars Story be able to hit the right cord with the franchise's huge fan base? Will it be able to come out of the shadows of Star Wars and create its own niche? Sameeksha from News18 is inside the theater to find out.
