SPOILER ALERT! Plot Of Gareth Edwards' STAR WARS Spinoff Sounds A Lot Like SUICIDE SQUAD
According to a new report, the plot of the first Star Wars spinoff will put the spotlight on a group of bounty hunters hired by the Rebel Alliance to steal the plans for the first Death Star! Are we going to see Boba Fett and how does this connect to The Force Awakens?
SlashFilm are usually reliable when it comes to scoops (they got that news about the release of the trailer debut for The Force Awakens right), so don't be afraid to start getting excited about Godzilla director Gareth Edwards' 2016 Star Wars spinoff. According to the site, it's going to focus on a group of bounty hunters hired by the Rebel Alliance to steal the plans of the first Death Star. That obviously means the movie will be set before A New Hope, but this is a pivotal moment in Star Wars history as it kicked off the events of the Original Trilogy. In terms of the approach to the movie, the site reveals that we should, "think the Seven Samurai or Suicide Squad meets Ocean’s Eleven in the world of Star Wars." They have some other interesting details too though, including the fact that the Millennium Falcon is somehow involved, but that Han Solo is NOT in the film. Will we meet a younger Lando? They don't know, but have heard that the main character in this spinoff will first be introduced in The Force Awakens, meaning that they'll obviously be much older in that film. Max von Syndow perhaps? Again, they don't have specifics, but this is very interesting and could even lead to some of the Star Wars Rebels characters making their live-action debuts...
