The first teaser trailer for "Rogue One" — this year's "Star Wars" film, slated for release in December — has arrived.
The movie, set between the end of the prequels and the beginning of the original series, is the first stand-alone film in the franchise and centers on the rebel fighters on a mission to steal the plans for the Death Star.
The trailer shows us Felicity Jones as a defiant fighter with a knack for aggravating authorities — a perfect fit for a rebellion, as far as she can see. There's also a young Mon Mothma, Donnie Yen smacking around a stormtrooper, Forest Whitaker whispering very intensely and some high-drama cape action.
And, of course, something that's definitely no moon...
