The Rogue One: A Star Wars Story media blitz is underway, with loads of new footage getting released in a torrent of TV spots and international trailers. The latest TV spot, “Strap In,” gives us a great moment with reprogrammed Imperial combat droid K-2SO (Alan Tudyk) and introduces another adorable alien ready to murder stormtroopers on behalf of the Rebellion.
At Star Wars Celebration in London, Disney introduced a new member of the Rogue One squad, a “space monkey” named Bistan. But the new Rogue One TV spot introduces another diminutive Rebel fighter, played by Warwick Davis.
My @starwars #RogueOne character made the TV trailer cut. Incidentally, this is the first #StarWars character I've played who has a blaster! pic.twitter.com/zTcPnq9BEN

Keep an eye out for him at :13 in the new Rogue One TV spot, “Strap In.”
The new trailers and TV spots for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story are doing a great job playing up the war and action aspect sof the new film. Hopefully it will overcome the messy reshoots to give us the Star Wars war movie we’ve always wanted.
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story will be out in theaters on Dec. 16.
