There’s a ‘Godzilla’ Easter Egg in ‘Rogue One: A Star Wars Story’
As if you needed another reason to be excited about Rogue One.
Prior to directing this month’s Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, director Gareth Edwards spent the majority of his career playing with monsters. His first feature, titled Monsters, was released in 2010, and it helped land him the gig directing the 2014 version of Godzilla. But will there be monsters in Rogue One? Actually yes, there will be. And they’ll be very familiar looking
Speaking with The Star Wars Show, Edwards just revealed that there are fun Easter egg tributes to both Monsters and Godzilla in Rogue One!
He explains where you’ll find the homages:
There’s some Easter eggs in Saw’s cave. There’s some cave paintings. One of them is of the creatures that were in my first film, called Monsters. And I think there’s some MUTOs and Godzilla painted somewhere in there. I didn’t ask for it. They did it as a joke. I came in one day and spotted it… during the middle of a take.
Keep those eyes peeled on December 16th, Star Wars fans!
The new trailer for epic survival thriller The Dog Stars warns to fear the survivors of the apocalypse.
Jacob Elordi (Frankenstein), Josh Brolin (Weapons), and Margaret Qualley (The Substance) try to maintain their humanity in the intense new trailer for Ridley Scott‘s survivor thriller, releasing in theaters on August 28, 2026.
The film is “set in a world where survival is instinct, but humanity is a choice. Scott tells the story of Hig, a young pilot who, together with a military survivalist, Bangley, has carved out an efficient but isolated homestead in a brutal post-apocalyptic world until a mysterious radio transmission spurs Hig to venture into the unknown in search of the hope and humanity he still believes exists.”
Guy Pearce, Benedict Wong, and Allison Janney also star.
The film is based on Peter Heller’s bestselling novel and written by Mark L. Smith (Overlord, The Revenant) and produced by Ridley Scott, Michael Pruss, Mark L. Smith, and Cliff Roberts.
Check out the new trailer and poster below, which emphasize the thrills in the upcoming survival thriller. But it’s one that’s also filled with hope.
“I think people will be surprised and engaged, actually. I would say, hmm… charmed as well,” Scott says of the film. “Although, there is some violence.”
