Gareth Edwards’ Rogue One
Wait! This one happened, right? Well, sort of. Though Gareth Edwards is credited for directing Rogue One, it’s widely known that Lucasfilm was not happy with how his version of the film was going and brought on writer Tony Gilroy to help change it. Early trailers featuring shots and scenes not in the movie give some idea of the differences, but this is an instance where it all worked out. The final movie is good and, of course, the Gilroy partnership has remained fruitful.
