When Rogue One hits theaters in December , Gareth Edwards has a tall order : Make a movie that fit in with the events of A New Hope and is undeniably Star Wars , but is still newfangled and tells its own story . But Edwards knows so as to do the former you have to focus on the latter first .
“ I got rip into making the film through my love of the original films , ” Edwards said . “ But then what was a clear conversation that happen early on at Lucasfilm that we ’re doing fresh thing here . This is not a karaoke issue or just unadulterated winks and fan service . That ’s not proceed to make a good film . This has got to be characters that you care about and there ’s an opportunity to create new mass and events that draw you in , so hopefully the goal is that you descend to the flick for all the reasons that we bonk Star Wars and you get sucked in and take off to care about the Modern the great unwashed and when you ’re in the midst of all that and that ’s going on , familiar matter embark on to pass you by , you start to remember ‘ Oh yeah , oh yeah ’ but the moving picture should be on its own terms . ”
Darth Vader is the staring instance of balancing novel and one-time in Rogue One . “ He ’s set out such a gravitational pull , the second he shows up you just get sucked into Darth Vader , ” order Edwards . “ So it was a process to try and envision out how to pepper that in in a way that felt right . ”
But Edwards feel if he can successfully reach this proportion , he ’ll be honoring the legacy of George Lucas himself .
“ If all these films are ever just , ‘ And here ’s that character you love , Yay ! Here ’s that other character you make out , Yay ! ’ all the time , that ’s all they ’re doing . They ’re not really doing what George did , which is he attempt to find news report that were about something , that were tell something . [ Stories ] that you keep in your air hole 40 year later , that stay in your head and are still affecting you . ”
