A contradictory element of Rogue One is that while it’s the first standalone movie, it isn’t truly standalone at all, functioning as such a direct prequel to A New Hope, and weaving into that film’s plotline in many ways. The mission also leads Jyn to cross paths with a couple of formidable fighters who weren’t part of the plan, when she and Cassian encounter Chirrut Îmwe (Donnie Yen) and Baze Malbus (Wen Jiang). Teamed with valued Rebel operative Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) and his droid, K-2SO (Alan Tudyk), Jyn’s mission will bring her into contact with other key figures like ex-Imperial pilot Bodhi Rook (Riz Ahmed) and the extremist anti-Empire warrior, Saw Gerrara (Forest Whitaker).
Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones) is not a member of the Alliance when the film begins, but a criminal – recruited by Rebel leader Mon Mothma (Genevieve O'Reilly, finally getting lines after the vast majority of her Revenge of the Sith footage was cut) to help find her father, Galen Erso (Mads Mikkelsen), a brilliant scientist who has been coerced into working on the Death Star project in a crucial role.
