I think Felicity Jones is just fine in the role.

Yeah...I thought her acting was head and shoulders above the rest in this film.

Hal Hickel, the animation director on Rogue One, has released a behind-the-scenes image of Darth Vader that didn't make it into the finished film. Apparently, there was a cut scene involving a conversation between Vader and Tarkin. Looks pretty badass:

I could be wrong but it looks like he's looking at Jedha after they use the Death Star on it.

Hard to tell since it appears to be a thermal scan of the surface. Some people on his Twitter feed think it's Mustafar.

Could be that. I was thinking it was after they used the Death Star on Jedha and that part of the planet is basically burning up.

How could you be wrong with Star Wars information?

 

[SamT]

Don't remember, didn't they already meet in the movie?

What's scary is that I'm a novice compared to some people.

No, Vader isn't ever on the Death Star in the finished version of Rogue One so he and Tarkin don't share screen time. Vader's only scenes are in his castle on Mustafar when he talks to Krennic and then he's on his Star Destroyer when he arrives at Scariff at the end of the movie.

I thought that scene where he force chokes Krennic was over the top. He shouldn't be going around and force choke all the officers. It cheapens Vader. And if I remember correctly, Krennic kind of liked it!

I have a feeling Vader is kinda into it, too.

Much like Jabba being into getting choked by Princess Leia in Return Of The Jedi.

I don't really mind it in Rogue One but there was a scene of him choking Moff Jerjerrod in Return Of The Jedi that I'm glad they dropped because it's basically the same thing as when we saw him choking guys in the first two movies.

 

[Citizen87645]

I feel like there's a Robot Chicken scene of Vader on a Force choking rampage.

Was this something that was filmed? A genuine cut scene? Or is this an animated mock up of the scene?

I'm not sure, Sam. Mr. Hickel didn't make that clear in his post.

EDIT: I did a little digging through the replies to Hal's post, and he does indicate that the scene was shot but cut from the film:

Thinking more about it, it may be from the end of the movie and Vader is looking at Scarif burning up on the monitor. If I remember correctly, the scene with Vader killing all the rebels was shot only a few months before the movie came out so maybe before that scene was added, he was originally on the Death Star and this is a still from that scene.

It doesn’t seem to be playing at the ONE IMAX screen in my state. Is it possible it just hasn’t been finalized yet or am I just SOL at this point? I would totally pay to see this again on a big screen!

I think the announcement said on 100 IMAX screens so there are several hundred that aren't getting it. It is also possible that the list of theaters aren't finalized yet.

My A-list movie today was Rogue One in IMAX, which looked and sounded fantastic. The movie was even better than I remembered it, with from my pov only a few very small flaws, including that maybe the CGI Tarkin could have been better.

Loved the extended preview before the movie of the new show Andor, which looks great.

 

[Josh Steinberg]

maybe the CGI Tarkin could have been better.

FWIW, the Tarkin illusion is much more convincing for me in the 3D version of the film than the 2D. I have no idea why that is but the first time I saw the film was in 3D and I was so convinced that I thought they had found the perfect lookalike. Then I saw it in 2D and could see that it was an illusion.
