The creative minds behind Disney’s newest land give Disney twenty-three an exclusive look at the spectacular addition to Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

On December 16, Star Wars fans will blast off once again to a galaxy far, far away—only this time, it’s with a new set of characters (save for one Sith Lord) in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. The film’s stars Felicity Jones and Alan Tudyk, director Gareth Edwards, and producer Kathleen Kennedy give readers a glimpse into the making of the film, which is centered on a group of rebels determined to steal the plans for the menacing Death Star. Kennedy reveals the origins of this first “stand-alone” film, while Edwards discusses the detailed planning that went into bringing Darth Vader back to the big screen.

This year, Disney’s Beauty and the Beast—the first animated film ever to be nominated for an Academy Award® for Best Picture—celebrates its 25th anniversary, and Disney twenty-three is giving fans a spectacular look at the film from its inception to its timeless legacy. Also included in the fall publication of Disney twenty-three is D23’s Fall TV Preview; an exclusive interview with Benedict Cumberbatch about his upcoming Marvel film Doctor Strange; a look at how Disney Theatrical Group creates spectacular shows for Broadway and beyond; a peek at the creation of Disney’s newest princess, Elena of Avalor; and a story focusing on the timeless artwork of Dumbo to toast the film’s 75th anniversary.

Through spectacular photography and in-depth articles, Disney fans will get an advance look at the one-of-a-kind theme park that is authentically Disney and distinctly Chinese. Plus, D23’s summer movie preview features exclusive interviews with Finding Dory’s Ellen Degeneres, Pete’s Dragon’s Bryce Dallas Howard, and The BFG director Steven Spielberg.
