Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is returning to theaters later this month, and Disney will bring the film back ahead of the premiere of “Andor.”
In anticipation of the debut of Lucasfilm’s upcoming new prequel series “Andor,” Disney will re-release “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story” in IMAX.
The 2016 film is opening in IMAX theaters across the U.S. and plans to show audiences exclusively the new Disney+ franchise. The re-release will give fans the chance to rewatch the film and reprise her role as anchor Cassian Andor on the big screen once again with Diego Luna. The new Andor series is set five years before the events of Rogue One and tells the story of how the Rebellion came about. Disney is calling the series a spy thriller, focusing on the return of Diego Luna. The series will also see familiar faces such as Genevieve O’Reilly and Forest Whitaker reprising their roles as Mon Motha and Saw Gerrera, respectively.
Rogue One is considered one of Disney’s most successful films of the Star Wars era. The film itself grossed over $1 billion at the box office and even won two Oscars. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story opens in theaters across the U.S. on September 21, and hits IMAX on the 26th in Ossut.
