Miles Teller is one of those guys who often plays the comedic relief, so it'll be interesting to see him in a leading man role. (No, I haven't seen Whiplash.)

But as much as I love the Jurassic Park movies, the fact that no one in these movies takes a look at the past and thinks, "maybe we shouldn't mess with dinosaurs" has my common sense screaming for mercy. It's a good thing my common sense has a mute button (see also: Fast and Furious).
New information has been released about the first stand-alone Star Wars movie in the new canon universe—Star Wars: Rogue One. (Thanks for the heads up, Rebecca!)
Up until now, details around the first entry in the Anthology Series, Gareth Edwards’ Rogue One, have been minimal. Edwards revealed that the film will revolve around a rogue band of resistance fighters who unite for a daring mission to steal the Death Star plans and bring new hope to the galaxy. “I couldn’t sit in a cinema and know that someone else made this film,” Edwards said in the panel. Fans were treated to concept art and a brief video that caused a packed house to erupt. (via)
Felicity Jones, the only cast member yet to be revealed, "will play a soldier in the Rebellion." (via)

ICYMI: A new Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer was released last week.
