The supporting characters in Rogue One are a refreshingly diverse ensemble, with Chinese martial artists Donnie Yen and Wen Jiang playing blind warrior monk Chirrut Imwe and his assassin bestie, Baze Malbus. Their banter isn't quite as funny as Leia and Han's, but for that there's K-2SO, who drily states the probability of success in any given situation - or why he thinks partnering with Jyn is a bad idea. In some ways, they're the opposite of Leia and Han, with Jyn the roguish heroine with a spotty reputation and Cassian the tried-and-true Rebel with a Cause. Jones and Luna are wonderful as Jyn and Cassian, both of whom have complicated pasts. While there have been plenty of rumors about the characters and events in this stand-alone "bridge" between Episode III and Episode IV, the reality is that this story is very much in keeping with that you'd expect from that precarious moment when the Empire was basically at its most powerful. For decades, devoted fans have wondered why the Death Star had a design flaw that the Rebel Alliance could even think about exploiting. This is the Star Wars story you were looking for but may not have even known it. Which Side of History?
