Disney's first spin-off from the "Star Wars" universe is set
for release in December and follows a group of rebels "on a
mission to steal the plans to the Death Star, the Empire's
ultimate weapon of destruction," according to starwars.com.
"The Theory of Everything" actress Felicity Jones plays feisty
lead character Jyn Erso, whose rebellious streak was first shown
in a trailer released in April. The movie, directed by Gareth
Edwards, also stars Oscar winner Forest Whitaker.
The story is set before the original films, which began with
1977's "Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope" and there are plenty
of Stormtroopers, fights and explosions in the new trailer,
which ends with a quick glimpse of Darth Vader's silhouette.
