Rogue One TV spot promises hope for the Rebellion as they prepare for war

Star Wars hype season has arrived

Following the release of Lucasfilm’s international trailer for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, a new TV spot has arrived, marking the beginning of Star Wars season.

The new 30-second spot doesn’t give away any more information, but it does provide some new shots of the Rebellion team in a series of combat situations. There’s also a better look at Donnie Yen’s Chirrut Îmwe and Forest Whitaker’s Saw Gerrera in action, taking on a team of stormtroopers.

Although Rogue One isn’t out for another month, if it’s anything like The Force Awakens, prepare for an onslaught of TV spots ahead of its release.

Rogue One, which stars Felicity Jones, Mads Mikkelsen, Ben Mendelsohn, Riz Ahmed, Alan Tudyk and Diego Luna, hits theaters Dec. 16.
