Doesn't Leia give the plans to Artoo in ANH?

Star Wats might as well make sci-fi remakes to every Kurosawa movie. Make the Boba Fett movie a Yojimbo remake.

Yeah, I was about to say.....
If anything, have the final shot be a behind the character shot of Leia, and the plans being handed to her. or a cameo by Jimmy Smits, in which he says he will deliver the plans to Leia.
What I like about Felicity's character as opposed to Rey is I dont get the feeling she is a good person, whereas with Rey they always set her up as the next hero. I dont think Felicity is a Hero, I think its entirely possible she sides with whoever pays her.
Both are survivors
Only one would have sold BB8 for 60 portions

you can't put a price on sparks
i'm cautiously optimistic. obviously looks more like actual star wars than i think even TFA accomplished (since its during the same time period)

Me personally: Hoping for an ending that ties into the Radio Drama, which features Leia learning about and intercepting the plans in the Tantive.
Remember, according to Star Wars, the plans aren't handed to anybody. They're transmitted to the Tantive IV. Beamed to the ship by Rebel Spies, specifically.
"I want to know what happened to the plans they sent you."

Post credits:
Captain Antilles: Oh, man, that last mission was rough. I hope I do a good job this time.
Crewman: We're counting on you, sir. Don't choke!

Are any of the radio drama's canon?
Do'h that's right. Leia it is.
Nah.
That:
That looks like an alternate take where the ship escapes to light speed

Again, a nod to the EU crowd--shades of Mara Jade. Rey doesn't seen much like Luke at all--if you were to think of what her mother might be like, it would almost be a 1:1 this character from Rogue One.

That's pretty fuckin' uncanny.
The many faces of Mon Mothma. They really nailed her casting. I'd really love if Mon had a big part in this movie.
I expect our heroes sacrifice themselves, biding time for the blockade runner to get away. Once they've got the plans, the rendezvous wherever Leia is, on her diplomatic mission. The Empire show up and Vader just goes nuts and destroys everyone.
I'd also hope, that it's established that, whilst not explicitedly stated in the OT, that Vader needs his pod thing to recuperate if he exerts himself too much. Recharge the batteries as it were. Might mean we can see a much more....active and formidable Vader, physically, than a geriatric Vader who's mind and force prowess is his greatest asset.

I think it's just where the gif begins its loop.

NOPE! But Lucasfilm has been steadily reintroducing ideas & pieces of them into the new canon via the YA novels, I believe. They're definitely open to mining them for ideas.
So I'm hoping we get some of that here. For example, one of the Radio Drama chapters features Leia stopping at a planet named Toprawa, encountering Vader, tricking Imperial reconnaissance, saving a rebel's life, recieving transmission of the plans, and jumping to hyperspace.
I don't think Leia's gonna be in this at all, but I could see the film maybe ending on one of our Rogues, just before dying, watching the Tantive IV touch down on Toprawa knowing that the plans will get transmitted.
I think the majority, if not all, will die and it will add more gravitas to episode 4.
There is no sequel, so there has to be some resolution, you cant just have Felicity Jones character walk off into the sunset having achieved something so grand and never be mentioned again...ever.
But maybe you can.

I want to see Leia sleeping with Lord Tion for the Death Star plans.

Ewan McGregor saying he couldn't say whether he'd spoken to Kathy Kennedy about it in a recent interview gives me hope.
The Princess, the Scoundrel, and the Farm Boy reinforced this by drawing from the radio dramas and stating that Leia had the Tantive IV parked over the planet that the battle happened on claiming that it was an emergency repair stop.

Can't be that, either. The plans are beamed to the Tantive IV. Leia never takes physical possession of them until just before she puts them in Artoo.
Yeah, that book pulls specific lines of dialog directly from Brian Daley's script

Everyone's just gonna call it Rogue One anyway.
I genuinely, genuinely, dont see how its not, its too important.
It would be an oversight if it was not in this, even briefly.

Yeah the only other spin-off I would care to see is a Kenobi one starring McGregor
that is a Seven Samurai remake

I'm sure someone's heard somewhere if this is the case or not (I'm out of the loop) but is Smits rumored to be in this thing at all?

I'd love to see Leia in this movie. Even if it's just a silhouette or from a distance. Carrie's daughter looks just like her.

Goddamn, why couldn't Snoke be more like the Grand Admiral shown in this trailer?
So much more threatening.
So much more threatening.
0 rumours about it, they discussed it on Jedi Council recently
Thats why it is a Spin off

don't do this to me.
Smits was one of my absolute favorite things about Revenge of the Sith. His Bail Organa is factually the most boss character in the prequels.

I didnt notice Mads in the trailer. Did anyone spot him?
Hes not in it, he is very very important in the film, i shall say no more.

He's not in the teaser.

So the actress playing Mon Mothma played the same role in Episode III.
Dem prequels stay canon.
