Though you might have expected all the big reveals about the next Star Wars movie to arrive – that would be Gareth Edwards' Rogue One – at last weekend's Celebration Europe, Lucasfilm still had a surprise up its robed sleeve to show off on the exhibition floor at San Diego Comic-Con. Meet Edrio Two Tubes, who will appear in the movie.

Edrio Two Tubes from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story

Edrio is described as "a mercenary pilot who flies alongside his egg-mate, Benthic. The two share the nickname derived from the breathing apparatus that allows their Tognath physiology to process oxygen atmospheres. Edrio’s home world Yar Togna was conquered and occupied by the Empire, forcing him to flee as a refugee. Desiring to strike back at the Empire, Edrio and Benthic have allied with Saw Gerrera" (played by Forest Whitaker in the movie).

Beyond that, we don't know anything about how this masked character fits into the story, but we'll find out this December 16, when Rogue One arrives. Head here for everything we know about the film so far about the movie. And if you missed our extensive Star Wars Celebration Europe activity, that can all be found in one handy location.
