    Just read a rumor that seems to confirm actor Guy Henry will play a certain Grand Moff, and a young actress named Ingvild Deila will be a young princess. Great choices if true!

    a friend of mine emailed it to me, and then I researched it and let to some Dorkside(?) site for part of it. I probably shouldn't say the word confirmed in that statement.

    I read the same on reddit (SWSpeculation). It's probably fake.

    Heroes that we suspiciously won't show you! Not even in the cartoon, except for maybe half of precisely one episode!

    After a few years of cynically wondering why we need this movie, I think I already love it.

    For the last 10 minutes I've continuously rewatched this ad. This little commercial has denitely filled me with hope for the Rebellion and Rogue One in general. Also, that excerpt from the film's score is simply joyous.

    I really do wonder how much "optimistic Jyn" is a product of the reshoots. I know I'm not the only one who felt her character came across differently before.

    Well I dont think audiences would be very forthcoming with a more negative character.

    Neither do I, but I do think the reshoots might be responsible for what we've seen in the last several trailers and things.

    I'd rather a cynical Han Solo-ish Jyn who becomes optimistic at the end of the movie than a Jyn who is like Tony Robbins or a Barack Obama leader throughout the movie.

    Well, we'll just have to wait and see how much of what we're overall getting.

    I think it's really weird - and, with all due respect, a bit ridiculous - to base an assumption of what a character is going to be like on a few seconds of footage seen in an ad, comprising only two lines. One of which is a snide-sounding "yes, sir", and the other is an edgy remark about how 'Xtreme' she is. The clip of her saying that "trust goes both ways" seems to be pretty consistent with that portrayal, whereas pretty much everything else we've seen with her ("Rebellions are built on hope!") looks to come after her character development. In all likelihood, this is what they had planned with her character from the beginning.

    It's the only way to make a rebel's rebel type of character, like one of Saw Gerrera's kind, anything other than one-dimensional.

    I think that it depends on the perception if the characters.

    To be honest, she came across as an angsty teenager in the first trailers. I guess there is a fine line between that and a cynical Han Solo-type character.

    Jyn is like a meringue. Seems tough on the outside, but inside she's sweet and soft daughter of her dad.
