At its conception in 1977, Star Wars was effectively a blend of mythology, history, and George Lucas’s favorite movies– a combination that would more or less persist through the rest of Lucas’s saga. But by the time of Disney’s acquisition of Lucasfilm, and pre-production on the first Star Wars spin-off film began, a new team of Star Wars creatives– led by director Gareth Edwards and writer Gary Whitta– would shake the storytelling foundations of the series in unprecedented fashion. Rogue One: A Star Wars Story would not only tell the story of the Rebel spies who stole the secret plans to the Death Star, but boldly ask the question: what if you removed the myth from Star Wars?
