Lucasfilm has released another new Star Wars: Rogue One video, this one spotlighting the main character Jyn Erso. Played by Felicity Jones, Erso is critical to the story. Her father (played by Mads Mikkelsen) was apparently the architect of the Death Star and the movie's story will involve trying to find him and steal the plans to the mega-weapon.
In the new featurette, Jones talks about how it was important to her and director Gareth Edwards to make Jyn come across as believable and relatable. "With Jyn, Gareth and I both felt that it was very important that we found her humanity and her vulnerability. Everyone should relate to her," she says.
Jones goes on to say that the rebellion finds Jyn somewhat tough to deal with, but must push past whatever differences they have to find her father and try to stop the Imperials.
This character video follows one from last week that shined a light on another rebel character, Captain Cassian Andor, who is played by Diego Luna--watch it here.
There has been a flood of new videos for Rogue One in the past few weeks. Another new video shows off how the movie's creature effects are largely physical, as opposed to the heavy use of CGI in the Star Wars prequels.
In other news, Edwards, the film's director, said this week that Star Wars creator George Lucas gave a thumbs up to Rogue One. "I don't wanna put words into his mouth, but I can honestly say that I can die happy now. He really liked the movie, so it meant a lot," Edwards said at a press event.
While you have to wait until December 16 to see Rogue One, you can pick up Star Wars: Battlefront's tie-in DLC, Rogue One: Scarif, right now on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. The DLC features four maps set on the tropical planet of Scarif and adds Jyn Erso and Orson Krennic as playable characters.
