The official Star Wars Twitter account has released, today, eight all-new Rogue One posters. Each poster is an individual character poster, and they all have one recurring theme: The plans to the Death Star is written across each face, in a neon green light.
"From Lucasfilm comes the first of the Star Wars standalone films, “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,” an all-new epic adventure. In a time of conflict, a group of unlikely heroes band together on a mission to steal the plans to the Death Star, the Empire’s ultimate weapon of destruction. This key event in the Star Wars timeline brings together ordinary people who choose to do extraordinary things, and in doing so, become part of something greater than themselves. In theaters December 2016."
Let’s start with the heroine of the film, Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones):

I have got to say, these posters are visually striking, and I absolutely love the fact that Lucasfilm decided to display the plans to the Death Star across each of their faces.
