'Rogue One: A Star Wars Story' finally has a new trailer, and the Gareth Edwards-directed feature stars Darth Vader himself. This trailer is the first we've seen of him since Revenge of the Sith (2005).

A cast full of women and people of color taking STAR WARS back to its guerrilla ethos? Yes. Let's do this. https://t.co/NmOAw8rdP6

I'll take my Rogue One any way I can get it, including crouched in a semi-quiet corner of the airport clutching my headphones. So good.

Rogue One looks good, fun to see Marvin the Pessimistic Android in this thing. https://t.co/V2ppreWhCU

#RogueOne trailer: WOW. Let's start with her ship. It looks like they crossed a snow speeder with an A-wing. LOVE IT pic.twitter.com/ZYBiu8nH1w
