\n\u201c\u2018Rogue One\u2019 takes place before the events of Star Wars: A New Hope and will be a departure from the saga films but have elements that are familiar to the Star Wars universe,\u201d<\/strong> says Kathleen Kennedy. \u201cIt goes into new territory, exploring the galactic struggle from a ground-war perspective while maintaining that essential Star Wars feel that fans have come to know. Gareth is such an innovative director and I\u2019m so excited to be working with him and the extraordinary ensemble cast he\u2019s selected for \u2018Rogue One.\u2019\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n
