Despite the fact that the teaser trailer first premiered.

Entertainment Weekly has a big cover-story about Rogue One this week, including confirmation that Darth Vader will be in the film, a look at the cast, and a reveal that one of the cast members in the film comes from the cult-favorite Clone Wars cartoon. (They even talk about those pesky reshoots.)

Additionally, a full gallery of new images from the film has arrived, and we’ve got them embedded for you below.

There’s not much more to grab plot wise from the images (besides the fact that we’re clearly spending some serious beach time in the movie), but I do love the weirdness of one of the Deathtroopers holding a toy Stormtrooper.

I have to be honest - learning more about this movie only makes me more excited. A blind-Force using Donnie Yen? An angry Empire middle manager? Felicity Jones in the TIE Fighter Pilot armor? I am in.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story directed by Godzilla’s Gareth Edwards hits theaters on December 16, 2016.

UPDATE! Entertainment Weekly revealed ANOTHER six images! Enjoy.
