Only a few heartbeats away and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story enters theaters on December 16.  This sci-fi flick is a prequel to the hit of Star Wars: Episode IV -- A New Hope, at the same time offers a sequel to Revenge of Sith.  Although, the setting is based on the timeline of Star Wars, the movie can also stand alone. 

The film directed by Gareth Edwards presents the female hero, Jyn Erso, (Felicity Jones).  The 32-year-old actress, Felicity in an interview shares it took her hours of practice under the supervision of a kung fu coach.   She says that the rehearsals were draining so she made a lot of preparations for the shoot.

Jyn is seen planning to lead a revolt in order to steal the Death Star plans. An introvert Jyn, whose father is a scientist, knows all the details significant to both the Rebels and the Empire. She will be leading the Rebellion to secure the plans.  By doing so, Felicity must confront the iconic comeback of Darth Vader.  The lead star is again voiced by James Earl Jones.  This must-see film is very interesting especially to the Star Wars die-hard fans.  The Lord Vader gives the story a spin, revealing his face this time around! 

 'Rogue One:  A Star Wars Story' poses a different direction from the Star Wars originals. The script is written by the genius Chris Weitz.  As the film plot uncovers, an occurrence of great battle is expected between the rebellious group and the defenders of the Empire. The fight takes place in galactic space, on land, despite the pouring rain or even under a desert sun.  The probability of the war leaves a lower winning rate as it has 97.6 percent chance to fail. The story thrills the viewers on the saga of acquiring victory over the villains.

The fans can't wait to pull down the days to hasten December 16 landing of 'Rogue One:  A Star Wars Story'
