Warning: There are spoilers ahead for "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story."
Fans know Darth Vader gets a bit of screen time in "Rogue One" from trailers, but he's not the only blast from the past to show up in the first "Star Wars" spin-off.
While we don't see Han, Chewie, or Luke, we do get a few other surprises throughout the movie. Keep reading to see which of your favorite "Star Wars" characters pop up in "Rogue One."
Mon Mothma
This cameo was teased in the early trailers for the film. Still, it was nice to see the leader of the Rebel Alliance from "Return of the Jedi." She's played by Genevieve O'Reilly. Originally, O'Reilly reprised her in "Revenge of the Sith," but her scene was cut. It was nice to see Lucasfilm ask her back, and an extra treat for fans.
Bail Organa
We were hoping we'd see Leia's adopted father again after the prequel movies. Jimmy Smits reprises his role and is working with the Rebel Alliance. Eagle-eyed fans may have caught him earlier in the year in a behind-the-scenes video for the film.
Grand Moff Tarkin
You may not have been surprised to see Tarkin since he was hinted at in trailers, but you may have been taken aback and distracted by the heavy use of CG to bring his character to life.
Wayne Pygram played a younger version of Tarkin with prosthetics in "Revenge of the Sith." Lucasfilm went another route this time. Fans are at odds over whether or not CG was the right decision. While some fans enjoyed it, others thought it looked noticeably cartoonish.
