As if the news that Star Wars: Episode VIII is arriving in May 2017 wasn't enough, fans of the Force got an extra dose of awesome with confirmation of Gareth Edwards' spinoff, Star Wars: Rogue One. That film will feature Oscar-nominated actress Felicity Jones as one of the leads, and now it gets even better with the addition of Oscar-winning composer, Alexandre Desplat.
Desplat, who recently won an Academy Award for his work on The Grand Budapest Hotel, revealed the news on Radio Classique's Culture Club that he will be reuniting with his Godzilla director. Plot details remain under wraps but whatever it's about we know it will have a good soundtrack, and likely will sound different than any other Star Wars film. Traditionalists can their fix from John Williams who is back scoring Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
Star Wars: Rogue One hits theaters on December 16th 2016.
