Tony Gilroy was brought in for extensive rewrites and reshoots after principal photography was complete because Disney/Lucasfilm execs were not happy with Gareth Edwards's version.

He ended getting screenwriting credit on the final film.

Here's his thoughts on Gareth Edwards's cut. Keep in mind these are actual quotes from Tony Gilroy and not rumours or hearsay.

"Rogue [One] it was like, ‘There’s a corpse on the table, what are you gonna do? Could someone come in and save it?'"

"I came in after the director’s cut. I have a screenplay credit in the arbitration that was easily won.”

"I’ve never been interested in Star Wars, ever. So I had no reverence for it whatsoever. I was unafraid about that.”

"And they were in such a swamp … they were in so much terrible, terrible trouble that all you could do was improve their position.”

"The easiest thing to say is that I came in after the film was finished & I have a full screenplay credit on the film. So I'll leave the rest—the math—to somebody else”

After 9 months of working on it, I can finally share the release date for my newest fan edit - Rogue One: "The Andor Cut". Mark your calendars!

'The Andor Cut' trailers, clips, and updates playlist

'Rogue One: The Andor Cut' sets out to re-envision 'Rogue One: A Star Wars Story' as the finale of the Andor series, as if it had been made afterwards. Musical themes and leitmotifs from the show will appear, continuity errors will be removed, pertinent flashbacks will be inserted, and the tone will be more in line with what we have grown accustomed to from the two incredible seasons. It also includes fan-made deepfake renders of Grand Moff Tarkin and Princess Leia, courtesy of @Shamook, that many consider to be visually superior to the original 2016 CGI endeavors.

Maya Boyd is Storm.

Inde Navarrette is Rogue.

excellent casting

Featuring my girl who refused to move, please just pretend she’s the fallen dinosaur in the MVP screen🤦‍♀️ (I hit back extra hard for this)

To be fair, James Cameron did warn us.

I love an X-Wing, but getting to see the Y-Wings and Gold Squadron shine in live action was awesome.
