Jyn Erso on an Imperial Shuttle

Back to Deleted and Alternate Scenes Main Menu


Description: Jyn Erso onboard what appears to be an Imperial cargo shuttle, putting on her insulated mechanics vest, the crystal from her mother is also clearly visible outside of her clothes. With dialogue not heard in the finished film:

JYN:
Anyone not willing to risk being left behind, now is your chance to speak up.

Note: The only place this footage and dialogue appears is in the Rogue One A Star Wars Story Featurette.

Note: Jyn is not wearing her field jacket that she wears on Jedha - Jyn has this jacket on until she puts on the cold weather survival gear on Eadu.

Speculation: Based on the background (cargo netting, orange bulkhead meeting grey bulkhead) I'm fairly sure this is inside an Imperial cargo shuttle. Also, it's hard to see but Jyn appears to only have the coded key cylinder in her vest, she receives her rebel comlink after the mission to Eadu. (It's possible she takes it from the cold weather survival gear) so I would guess that this scene fits somewhere on the ride home from Eadu?

Speculation: This scene really doesn't seem to fit with any part of the finished film. It cannot be from before Jyn decides to find her Father at the Imperial facility as the team did not have the Imperial shuttle at this point. So this must be after they leave Eadu, but the lack of a rebel comlink indicates that this is before they arrive on Yavin IV.
Also the Eadu mission ends with Jyn's father dead and Jyn at odds with Cassian, also both characters are soaked through - and also the line of dialogue itself would make no sense given the situation after Eadu - they are leaving somewhere and their next course of action is undecided.

Speculation: Could this be a costume / camera test?




Note: In the finished film, there is an editing error indicating a scene has been cut - after Cassian and Bodhi leave the downed U-Wing there is a scene where Jyn, Chirrut, Baze and K-2SO discuss Cassian's intentions.
In the first shot of Jyn looking out the window -she is wearing the same outfit that she wears on Jedha - undershirt, field jacket, insulated mechanics vest and scarf. In the immediate shot inside the shuttle with Jyn talking to Chirrut and Baze she is wearing her cold weather survival gear
