Star Wars Rogue One tickets on sale in Ireland now

Star Wars came back with a bang in 2015 with the arrival of The Force Awakens and the franchise isn't going away any time soon,

Episode VIII will be along in late 2017 and before that we have the first ever Star Wars Story. These are spin off tales which will include a look at the early life of Han Solo in the future.

Up first is Rogue One, which is all about filling in the details of how the Death Star plans were stolen before the events of 1977's A New Hope. It's an entirely new direction for Star Wars and it's all very exciting.
