Star Wars: Rogue Squadron Announcement Teaser

Watch the Star Wars: Rogue Squadron announcement teaser. Patty Jenkins to direct a new generation of starfighter pilots!

The next Star Wars feature film will be Rogue Squadron directed by Patty Jenkins (Wonder Woman franchise). The story will introduce a new generation of starfighter pilots as they earn their wings and risk their lives in a boundary-pushing, high-speed thrill-ride, and move the saga into the future era of the galaxy.

"It's been a lifelong dream as a filmmaker to one day make a great fighter pilot film," said Jenkins. "As the daughter of a great fighter pilot myself, some of the best memories of my life are of seeing my father's squadron take off in their F4s every morning, and hearing and feeling the awe-inspiring power and grace. When he passed away in service to this country it ignited a burning desire to one day channel all of those emotions into one great film. When the perfect story arrived in combination with another true love of mine, the incomparable world of Star Wars, I knew I'd finally found my next film. I'm extremely honored and excited to take it on, and grateful to Lucasfilm, Disney, and the fans for extending that thrill to me."

"Patty has established herself as one of the top directors working in the film industry today," said Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy. "She's a visionary who knows how to strike the balance between action and heart, and I can't wait to see what she does in the Star Wars galaxy."
