Weekly Round-Up

It’s been a busy two weeks, with the Oscars coming and going and rumours about Rogue One swirling. So let’s see what’s been happening:

  • Tony Dyson, the creator of the beloved R2-D2, has died. (The Guardian)
  • Rogue One previewed at Stakeholder’s Meeting (Slash Film)
  • The Force Awakens will come to your house on the 18th of April! (Den of Geek)
  • Mark Hamill is fine with you thinking Luke is gay (The Independent)
  • Ep VIII is starting right where The Force Awakens ends! (SlashFilm)
  • Guess who crashed the Oscars? (The Independent)
  • Want to hear another crazy Rey theory? (Radio Times)
  • Star Wars is taking over Disneyland and no one is complaining (Tech Times)

Find more of Stephanie’s art on Tumblr and Twitter.
