First Star Wars Spin-Off Officially Titled "Rogue One"
------------------------------------------------------
Straight from The Walt Disney Company Annual Meeting of
Shareholders, Bob Iger has delivered a bombshell of an
announcement revealing that the first upcoming Star Wars
standalone film, set to be written by Chris Weitz and
directed by Gareth Edwards, is officially titled "Rogue
One" and will star Academy Award nominee Felicity Jones.
It will begin shooting this summer in London and debut
in theaters on December 16, 2016.

The idea for the story of "Rogue One" came from John
Knoll, an Academy Award-winning visual effects
supervisor and chief creative officer at Industrial
Light & Magic. He will executive produce along with
Simon Emanuel (The Dark Knight Rises, Fast & Furious 6)
and Jason McGatlin (Tintin, War of the Worlds). Kathleen
Kennedy and Tony To (Band of Brothers, The Pacific) are
on board to produce and John Swartz (Star Wars: The Force
Awakens) will co-produce.
