The final hit in the media blitz of EW's slow release of their cover story on Rogue One: A Star Wars Story this week comes in the form of six all-new images (actually new ones, not just recropped this time), and a few remaining tidbits of information about the film. The new issue is on newsstands today in case you'd like to see all of this again in print.
Most of the new information is actually just questions about the characters. Things like, if the Death Troopers, the new black-clad Stormtroopers pictured above were such an effective elite force, why aren't they in Episodes IV-VI? The new picture of Chirrut Imwe, the blind warrior monk played by Donnie Yen, shows his alternate weapon - he won't only be using a quarter staff. The other new images are a big more ambiguous in their content, showing Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) amongst a squad of Rebels, Baze Malbus (Jiang Wen) next to a crashed X-Wing and cautiously raising his blaster (though not actually aiming at anything - it's more of an "at the ready" position for military folk), the Rebel squad storming the beach of the new mystery planet, and finally Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones) and Cassian in close quarters together.
Take a look at the gallery of new images (and the previously released ones) below, and be sure to visit our Rogue One: A Star Wars Story hub for more than ten major pieces of news from this week.
