10 Years Ago Today, Star Wars Made a Promise to Fans (That It Broke Almost Immediately)

On April 7, 2016, the first trailer for Rogue One gave fans a glimpse of the upcoming film and introduced the main character, Jyn Erso. The trailer promised a gritty, intense war movie that felt different from other Star Wars films. Interestingly, shortly after its release, the studio nearly changed course. The original trailer included scenes that didn’t end up in the final cut and didn’t reflect the significant amount of additional filming that happened before the movie came out.
