The last time I loved a Star Wars movie as much as I loved #RogueOne, it was 1977.

Rogue One was directed by Godzilla's Gareth Edwards. It stars Felicity Jones, Mads Mikkelsen, Ben Mendelsohn, Diego Luna, and Forest Whitaker. It comes to theaters on December 16.
In other news, Lucasfilm has released a featurette that shines a light on the music that Michael Giacchino wrote for Rogue One. As you'll see, the music riffs on John Williams' iconic score, but also has a flavor all its own. Watch it below:
