For those wondering if they should read this article before they head into the movie this coming weekend, know that we do not discuss major spoilers on the fate of any of Rogue One‘s squadron of new heroes like Jyn Erso or Cassian Andor. What we do talk about is the many surprise cameos of saga characters and vehicles, as well as important story elements that overlap with the six films that George Lucas made between 1977 and 2005.
