like storm trooper han, i want tie fighter jyn and imperial officer whats his name
Are Imperial Officers allowed facial hair? I know in Empire the one General had a 'stache, but I never recall seeing a beard.
I thought that was a rebel disguised as an Imperial officer.
Thats the point though. The empire doesn't allow unkempt facial hair. Especially before A New Hope. So that beard is like shouting, "I may not be Imperial"
There was a massive spoiler for Donnie Yens character (Chirrut Îmwe) at Star Wars Celebration Panel, the actor Wen Jiang(Baze Malbus) dropped a bombshell and Kathleen Kennedy gave him the look of death, I cant remember if they edited it out or not. but i was shocked. I really didn't think that was intentional.
I just think it's the way he mentions about the force and how he fights , plus he could have a lightsaber hidden within his staff. Lightsaber fights are Star wars movies biggest draws, I can't see this movie being any different. Vader will own him obviously haha.
My guesses about the trailer. And my SW history may be slanted by non canon aspects of past SW games so... lol
Beach area shown, makes me think Yavin. With that in mind although the statue ruins were clearly in what looked like in a desert area (Korriban? Lol) wasn't there a Jedi Temple on Yavin? The seemingly blind man facing (not sure) with what looked like a sword, SWG alumni, Terra Kasi Master? I'm prolly way off base but this is what I thought when I saw it. All we needed was Black Sun and it was SWG come to life lol
Just read this, I might not be off base afterall. Bolded part could explain the desert area/ statue, and the destruction seen near the end. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Teräs_Käsi

Teräs Käsi, or "steel hands" in Basic, was an unarmed combat discipline. It was created sometime prior to 3678 BBY[1] on the planet Bunduki by the Followers of Palawa, refugees of the planet Palawa, which was devastated earlier in a war somehow involving the Jedi Council. The Followers of Palawa created Teräs Käsi solely to fight with Jedi, and presumably, ensure that another world would never be destroyed by the actions of the Council. The Followers of Palawa studied the Force and Midi-chlorians, even though they themselves were not necessarily Force-sensitive"
I've a sneaking suspicion that the Donnie Yen character is a hidden Jedi.
Chirrut Imwe (Donnie Yen)
Pronounced chi-RUT, he’s no Jedi, but he’s devoted to their ways and has used his spirituality to overcome his blindness and become a formidable warrior. “Chirrut falls into the category of being a warrior monk,” says Kennedy. “He very much still believes in everything the Jedi were about.” He maintains that belief even though the Jedi are no longer there to protect the galaxy. As director Gareth Edwards puts it: “This idea that magical beings are going to come and save us is going away, and it’s up to normal, everyday people to take a stand to stop evil from dominating the world.” -From Entertainment Weekly magazine.

In a very inconspicious way!
