When I first heard about this, I was a bit worried that it would end up resembling a straight to video sequel. What a relief then, to see such a promising teaser that looks and feels like the real deal.
Whoever picked out the locations has done a superb job, they're completely nailing the aesthetic. I can't wait to find out how that subway platform-looking thing is going to come into play. 
Probably bs, but very interesting though.

Spoiler
This team of "heroes of the Rebel Alliance" is sent to steal the plans of the First Death Star:
Felicity Jones plays Jyn Erso, a gifted soldier and warrior.
Diego Luna plays Captain Cassian Andor, an officer in the Rebel Alliance
Jiang Wen plays Baze, a freelance assassin
Alan Tudyk plays the CGI character K-250, an Enforcer Droid and evidently an imperial model, but teams up with the rebels.
Riz Ahmed plays Bodhi, a rebel soldier.
Pao, an alien who is described as a "fierce warrior".
Donnie Yen plays Chirrut, a spiritual warrior.
Bistan, another alien who is described as a "fierce warrior".
And then on the Imperial page:
Ben Mendelssohn as Director Krennic, the military director of the Empire, to defend the Galactic Empire against the Rebels mission to steal the Death Star plans.

Trailer #2. The emotion building throughout and ending it with the force theme, just great.
Promo stills
A new TV spot appeared the other day, with a number of new scenes including one where a rocket launcher is fired at one of the AT-ATs. 
Awesome.
I can't believe how quickly the release date for this has snuck up on me. It only seems like five minutes since @toodarnhot started the topic, and now here we are with just a month to go.
I like the old fashioned/retro poster (which looks like it's getting back in vogue):
The two chinese actors are famous in Asia.
This film looks good in the stills but has the risk of being wooden. I like the set pieces.
I hope it will be better than the Force Awakened (which sucked)
