See a New ROGUE ONE: A STAR WARS STORY Poster; New Trailer Coming Tomorrow
Disney and Lucasfilm have unveiled a brand new poster for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, which you can see above. While I like the very bottom of the poster with the beach environment, I have to say that I'm disappointed they chose to go with the "floating heads" approach with the rest of the poster. Yes, some will undoubtedly get excited by seeing Darth Vader's mask in the top right corner, and I suppose there's some sort of artistry involved or statement being made in attempting to visually blend Felicity Jones' Jyn Erso into the technology of Death Star itself, but when you step back, it looks like a lot of other boring posters and doesn't do much to get me excited about the movie. Even if I loved the film, this is just too generic to want to hang on my wall.
But perhaps we'll see some more compelling imagery tomorrow, when the studio revealed that a new trailer will be released during Good Morning America. Stay tuned for that to hit the internet, and in the meantime, sound off with your thoughts on the poster.
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story hits theaters on December 16, 2016.
