Over the weekend, Star Wars Celebration occurred in the U.K., bringing together Star Wars fans and the stars of the upcoming Star Wars films.
One panel focused on Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, the film slated to hit theaters later this year that takes place shortly before Episode IV: A New Hope, in which a Rebel Alliance team steals the plans for the Death Star. Gwendoline Christie, who plays Captain Phasma in the Star Wars saga, hosted the Rogue One panel which featured Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy and cast members Felicity Jones, Diego Luna, Riz Ahmed, Donnie Yen, Jiang Wen, Alan Tudyk, Mads Mikkelsen, Forest Whitaker and Ben Mendehlson.
