ROGUE ONE: END OF THE LINE?


SPOILER ALERT! Arrived at an Imperial communications dish terminal located on the tropical world of Scarif, Jyn Erso has fulfilled her personal and courageous destiny- no longer the lonely but resilient on the run child and scavenger criminal, she has proven herself in becoming the key battle-hardened heroine/operative in securing and dispatching critical stolen plans for direct transmission to what will be a very special personage in the Rebel Alliance. But, as Imperial forces draw near, including the almost mythical terror figure of Darth Vader, Dark Lord of the Sith, can Jyn escape their pursuit? Or will she sacrifice herself in a way that will inspire further, building dissension across the galaxy against the Empire?

Has a behind the scenes game plan been worked out for the next new heroine of the STAR WARS saga? Will Jyn survive this mission for a future standalone film? Or will she be one of those Rebel Spies that didn't survive, as mentioned by Vader in George Lucas's original 15th March, 1976 screenplay for A New Hope? In December, we'll find out...

Out now: EMPIRE magazine's first exclusive UK coverage for ROGUE ONE.
