Watch New 'Rogue One: A Star Wars Story' Teaser Trailer

Did you catch the teaser trailer for the next Star Wars movie? As you know, we'll be going back to the time before the Death Star was built in Star Wars: A New Hope. Check it out below.

The story deals with the unlikely heroes who have gathered to steal the plans for the dreaded Death Star. I was a little skeptical when I first heard about the premise, but you have to admit there's something almost chilling about seeing the regular Stormtroopers once again. The teaser really hits the right marks.

Here's some official high-res stills from Disney:

The cast includes Felicity Jones, Diego Luna, Ben Mendelsohn, Donnie Yen, Jiang Wen, Mads Mikkelsen, Alan Tudyk, Riz Ahmed, and Forest Whitaker. "Rogue One" is directed by Gareth Edwards, produced by Kathleen Kennedy, Allison Shearmur, and Simon Emanuel, executive produced by John Knoll and Jason McGatlin, and co-produced by John Swartz and Kiri Hart.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story opens in theaters December 16, 2016.

This looks pretty good. I wonder if we'll see a bit of Vader and Sideous in this.

My man Donnie Yen tearing it up!

I want to watch it so bad, but I must resist

Are we going to have a kung fu training montage with Donnie Yen?

@victorcheenoanleu: why?

Ooh, pretty.

What we've seen looks really GOOD, now show us some VADER and make it GREAT!!!!

Donnie Yen (Iron Monkey) in a Star Wars movie?

Dude... This looks great! Mon Mothma! Tarkin! It looks like Forrest is wearing Mandalorian armor! Can't wait!

This looks really good, nice balance between not showing too much but showing the right stuff to get people interested.

Let me get this straight: That other "trailer" was a "teaser" for THIS "teaser trailer"?

Teaser-ception is the name of the game when it comes to trailers nowadays.

Wait, so this takes place before the original trilogy? Hmm.... Donnie Yen is a Jedi?

low expectations

I thought I'd have no interest in a Star Wars movie unless Vader was involved. While watching the trailer, Vader didn't even cross my mind. Based on its premise, this will easily be my favorite Star Wars movie.

"Another" Deathstar....

Hope this female lead isn't a mary sue

This looks great

I have to say, this trailer did its job. I'm pretty excited about this now. There's something about AT-AT's that tend to do that for me.

This really looks good.

How many interpretations of the Force theme have been made already? And why it never dissapoints? I want to download this version now.

I guess this film makes Kyle Katarn irrelevant. I can't wait to see Vader in the full trailer!

@deadpool25mm: it's not another Death Star, this takes place before Star Wars so it's the first one constructed.

If you're just complaining about another movie with the Death Star in it, fair. But this is about the rebels who stole the plans to the first Death Star, something that could be interesting.

Not interested, but I might go just to keep count of how many Bothans they consider "many" to be...

Nope, they mentioned the Bothans in episode VI, the Bothans gathered info about the Second Death Star above endor.

Count me in that looks like it could be great!

Looks awesome.

Looks fantastic. That soundtrack is killer

OHHHHH MAN

NEED TO! I wonder who the guy in black was? Vader never wore a hood in any material so it almost rules him out but leaves questions as to who wore a black cape in the empire.

Looks amazing. My hype is real.

Correct! Been too long since I watched the OT. I guess I haven't seen them since my VCR blew up. I ain't watching no damn Special Edition...

Awesome stuff! Donnie Yen and Forest Whitaker were my favourite... Scratch that, everything was my favourite!

This looks great. It will be nice to have a movie without Jedi/Sith. Not that I dislike Jedi/Sith, just that I'm glad these areas can be explored.

Hell yeah, Ip man Donnie is in this??! okay, im sold, plus he is blind aswell?

Yes, with this song playing over the montage:

f*ckin Mon Mothma

Will the Bothans make an appearance or be referred to during the movie. In the original trilogy they were the species/aliens that stole the blueprints that were uploaded into R2-D2.

I'm more into the numbered episodes than spin-offs like this, but it looks like a good time. And my girlfriend's gonna drag me to see it anyway XD

@chrisburgess99: Actually, the Bothans stole the plan to the second Death Star from Return of the Jedi, not this one.

I don't want to get my hopes up but this SEEMS like it will be amazing

Can't say my hype levels are the same as when I first saw the trailer for EPVII, but I am interested and will def check this out.

Awesome trailer!

Mark Hamill and his death stare.

He doesn't wan't spoilers. There's not much here anyway, and honestly I'm not really that pumped for this movie. I'll go see it but that music just wasn't that great and that's one thing that pulls me in even deeper.

The Raid guys choreographing Donnie Yen! Gonna be the best Kung Fu ever seen!

I take it back. Re-watched it. Can confirm, am excited.
