‘Rogue One’ Poster shows Stormtroopers in the Maldives – Stars Wars out in the Tropics

For those who thought that the Maldives had more than its fair share of curious followers who comb its beaches and Maldives five star resorts in search of star class accommodation and riveting outdoor activities, then here is another reason to get all excited about. ‘Rogue One’ which is the latest sequel to the blockbuster Hollywood movie – ‘Star Wars’ is set to take the world by storm, or at least this time with more focus on the Maldives. Yes you heard it right! Hot off the press at this year’s Star Wars Convention which was held in London recently, the talk of the town so to speak was the movie’s latest sequel portrayed on a poster where the popular Stormtroopers are seen wading knee-deep in water, fully armed and ready for combat. In what is hoped to be an unforgettable chapter in one of the most acclaimed movies to hit the big screen, ‘Rogue One’ is actually filmed in the Maldives using members of Maldives National Defence Force playing the role of the Stormtroopers. Fans are of the view that in the event the billboards do go up in the Maldives that more attention is sure to be drawn towards it and those arriving in this part of the world, particularly during its launch in December 2016 can expect to be treated to one amazing experience, what with the immense number of other entertainment activities, stunning beaches and multitude of hotels and resorts such as the Anantara Dhigu Maldives Resort and others.
