New Star Wars: Rogue One Trailer Drops During NBC Olympics

New Star Wars: Rogue One Trailer

Just a few weeks ago we were treated to an inside look at Rogue One: A Star Wars Story thanks to Disney and Lucasfilm making their Comic-Con behind-the-scenes video available to the world. Some of that footage may appear in the new Star Wars: Rogue One trailer that will jump into view sooner rather than later.

On Sunday NBC began airing TV spots promoting a new Star Wars: Rogue One trailer would premiere on their network this upcoming Thursday. Confirmation of that TV spot showed up online and gave no indication whatsoever that it was fake.


A short time later the official Star Wars social media accounts formally announced the upcoming new trailer, but stopped short of tipping exactly when on Thursday during the 2016 Rio Olympics TV coverage to keep an eye out of for.

History tells us that the official Star Wars YouTube channel will likely have the new Star Wars: Rogue One trailer ready for endless viewing not long after it premieres on NBC during the Olympics. True Star Wars fans will be tuned into Olympics coverage for a chance to see it first.

Maybe we’ll get our first glimpse of Darth Vader now that Lucasfilm has officially confirmed his presence in the film.

Star Wars: Rogue One arrives in theaters on December 16th.
