Rogue One will largely follow a new scrappy group of rebels, but it will also feature a handful of classic characters making their return.
These installments will alternate between main chapters and standalone movies, with this December’s Rogue One: A Star Wars Story marking the first spinoff in the franchise’s history.
And while this phrase may originally be referring to Christmas, Star Wars fans will know that the month now means something else entirely.
Because now that Disney has taken over the franchise, we can expect a new Star Wars movie every December for the foreseeable future.
