We're 4 months away from another STAR WARS flick and as you can imagine, the promotions are only going to ramp up from here. Today we have a cover from Empire's upcoming magazine, featuring the ROGUE ONE rebels doing what they do best; standing at an angle while facing the camera. Take a look at the latest and place your bets on who's making it through this flick alive!

Pictured from left to right: Donnie Yen as Chirrut Imwe; Jiang Wen as Baze Malbus; Felicity Jones as Jyn Erso; Diego Luna as Cassian Andor; Riz Ahmed as Bodhi Rook; and the droid K2-S0 being motion-captured by Alan Tudyk.

It's worth noting that Empire will debut an alternate cover tomorrow (villains, perhaps?), and the exclusive limited edition subscribers cover will be unveiled on Monday. Admittedly, we've seen several pictures like this one already, so I'm hoping marketing gets a little more creative. Then again, it's friggin' Star Wars so they could show the same shot every day until December and fans would still show up. In any case, the actual cinematography of the film looks gorgeous some I'm hoping some of the promotional pics will reflect that in the coming months.

ROGUE ONE: A STAR WARS STORY will open in theaters on December 16, 2016.
