A new international trailer for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story has hit, with a few seconds of new footage laced into scenes (and lines) from both of the first two U.S. trailers. The tone is the same in this trailer, with many shots of the actual "War" part of Star Wars, though it was notably missing any major presence of villain Director Orson Krennic (Ben Mendelsohn), who just gets a quick, dark shot from behind. There's an extra shot of the Deathtroopers (the black-clad stormtrooper special forces), and a couple new looks at Diego Luna's Captain Cassian Andor.

SLIGHT SPOILERS AHEAD: Most importantly, though, is the extra line of dialogue from Cassian in this trailer. When Mon Mothma tells our heroine Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones) they've "intercepted an encoded Imperial transmission" about an upcoming weapons test, Cassian delivers some new information: "The message was sent by your father."

The rumor has long been that Jyn's father, Galen, played by Mads Mikkelsen, would be the "Oppenheimer" of the Star Wars universe, compelled by the Empire to help them develop their most fearsome weapon, the worlds-destroying Death Star. It adds another layer to the job that Jyn Erso is doing, in directly trying to make right what her father has wrought. Ah, Star Wars and their daddy issues!

Check out the trailer above, dissect the new footage, and keep counting down the moments to December 16, 2016, when Rogue One hits theaters.
