The new international trailer for Rogue One features more of Jyn’s journey, including her mother, Lyra Erso. (Who believes in the Force, and is that a kyber crystal? The shape seems consistent with new canon, at least.) Also, new Death Star and Vader shots, because.
Is that a special music remix for the trailer? Or has Michael Giacchino had time to work on the score? (Very relieved it’s him taking over for the first non-Williams; I liked most of his scores and he even made the old TV Trek theme ACTUALLY sound epic for a change.)
Lyra having her hands on a kyber crystal makes a lot of sense, as you’ll see in Catalyst
I’m assuming – since they send the review copies out later now, and mine might come on Monday, if I’m lucky – that she’s going to be a believer in the Force. (Church of the Force?) I also wonder if it’s not necessarily a kyber crystal, but a standard common crystal (like whatever the GFFA equivalent of quartz is) that’s more symbolic than anything.
