WATCH: Donnie Yen, Darth Vader, and more shine in new ‘Rogue One’ trailer
Darth Vader is back, Donnie Yen as the blind monk Chirrut Imwe, and more scenes from the upcoming 'Star Wars' standalone film

MANILA, Philippines – Darth Vader is back in the Star Wars universe and fans everywhere got their first glimpse of the Sith Lord in Rogue One in a brand new trailer released on Friday, August 12.

The brand new trailer gives a clearer and closer look at almost the entire new cast, though some characters remain shrouded in mystery. We hear a lot more dialogue from Cassian, and we get to see actors Jiang Wen and Donnie Yen in action as the terrific pair of fighters Baze and Chirrut.

Chirrut, a blind monk, is heard calmly saying, “I fear nothing! All is as the Force wills it!” before taking down a group of storm troopers.

The trailer sets an ominous scene as the Empire is in full power and wreaking havoc across the galaxy. There is war, suffering, and innocent people caught in the crossfire. It’s in this time of upheaval that our band of characters step up to the plate for their chance to become the heroes of their time.

The villains step out in full force: Darth Vader is seen and heard in the final frame, while we also get a close-up shot of Rogue One baddie Orson Krennic.

While it was revealed during Star Wars Celebration in July that Darth Vader would be in Rogue One, this is the first trailer with Darth Vader that’s been made public.
