So, spoiler alert
Forest Whitaker plays Saw Gerrera from The Clone Wars, we have a cross-over from animated to live action. Wohoo!

The Spoilerrific Super Duper Rogue One Megathread!
wow those are some awesome shots there. good use of the Farsee force power in that Blind Monk Chirrut Imwe
Anyone else chuckle at the Stormtrooper in the background who was seriously crashed out?
Man, those costumes have to be hot….

As far as I know (and I don't know for certain, just from things I've read), Donnie Yen's character isn't a Force-user.
Chirrut Imwe
•He’s not a Jedi, but he’s devoted to their ways to use his spiritually to overcome his blindness and become a better warrior.
•He’s a “warrior monk” as Kathleen Kennedy describes him.
Director Orson Krennic
•He controls a squad of Deathtroopers.
•He is trying his best to avoide the wrath of Darth Vader.
•Wants to ascend into the Emperor’s graces.
•Darth Vader is his enforcer.
Not a Jedi but he sounds Force Sensitive. If that's the case, it will be awesome to see a Non-Jedi Force Sensitive on the big screen.
In either case, I'm ready to see Ip Man in a Galaxy Far Far Away.

Whatever happened to the big Forest Whitaker reveal?
They made it last week. He's playing Saw Gerrerra, introduced in the four-part Onderon story from early season five of The Clone Wars, marking the first time that a character created for one of the animated series has made the jump to live action.

Thanks, I missed that.
I need to finally finish watching that series, I have more incentive to do so now.

It will definitely be refreshing to see a non Jedi non Sith Force User, fingers crossed that is what he is
I can't cite a source, but I'm pretty it has been stated that Imwe isn't force sensitive, but devoted to the religion... but either way, I'm looking forward to him kicking behinds and bucket heads.

According to io9, Chirrut Imwe is a “warrior monk” type who is blind and, while he can’t use the Force, believes in it.

I'm really looking forward to the expansion of the universe beyond the central characters this movie is going to accomplish.
Hope they make some announcements about these Netflix shows they talked about last summer. More live action content is gooder. They've done a decent job with Daredevil and Jessica Jones so I'm sure Star Wars stuff will be solid also.
Really looking forward to the announcement for the 3rd anthology movie as well.

Finally!
Ever since A New Hope, when Lucas made it sound like the Force had almost been a religion, I've been waiting for someone like this to come!

The first, but hopefully not the last.
Live Stream Star Wars celebration. Rogue 1 panel.
Clip looked pretty cool to me.
Gotta love the crazy alien door gunner.
So Diego Luna and the droid are best buddies.
