One of the current main points of discussion from within the Star Wars fan community is the topic of an opening crawl being used at the outset of director Gareth Edwards’ upcoming Rogue One. Taking it a step further, fans have been wondering if any of the new standalone Star Wars films will have their own respective opening crawl. Lucasfilm President Kathleen Kennedy and Gareth Edwards commented on this very topic over the weekend during an interview with Entertainment Tonight at Celebration Europe 2016.
The brains behind ‘Rogue One’ shed more light on the opening crawl after it was first reported they might lose the standard ‘Star Wars’ trope.
