Last week, a new trailer for Rogue One was released--watch it here. The film is directed by Godzilla's Gareth Edwards and stars Felicity Jones, Diego Luna, Riz Ahmed, Donnie Yen, Ben Mendelsohn, Forest Whitaker, and Mads Mikkelsen.

The film underwent extensive reshoots this summer, with Bourne writer Tony Gilroy brought into assist Edwards. Jones and Lucasfilm boss Kathleen Kennedy recently downplayed the significance of the reshoots, both stressing that it was entirely normal for a film of Rogue One's scale.

"Obviously when you come to the edit, you see the film come together and you think, 'Actually, we could do this better, and this would make more sense if we did this,'" Jones told The Hollywood Reporter. "I've done it so many times. I mean, you wouldn't just give your first draft on this story, would you?"

Rogue One hits theaters on December 16, 2016.
