Warning: Vague spoilers for 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars: Rogue One ahead. There's nothing too specific, but if you want to avoid knowing anything, wait to read this until after you've seen the movie.

If the scene in Rogue One where X-Wing pilots give out their callsigns felt particularly authentic to you, well, that'sꦦ because it was. Turns out director Gareth Edwards spliced in previously unused New Hope footage, updating and cleaꦇning the image to fit with his 2016 film.

. "We got the neg documents and found the clips from A New Hope that hadn’t been used. And there’s pilot photography and lines that were never featured in A New Hope."

Gareth was allowed to use the scrapped footage - and so he did, handing it off to Industrial Light & Magic. ILM then digitized and manipulated the reels so they wouldn't stand out (at least not in a bad way) and they were inserted alongside the new callsign shoutouts𓄧. Edwards told Radio Times he was afraid it would be a lot of effort for little to no payoff, but I suspect the more sharp-eyed fans noticed and appreciate the gesture.
