'Rogue One' To Open in UK Theatres on December 15th

Star Wars fans in the UK rejoice!  Rogue One: A Star Wars Story will hit theaters in the United Kingdom a day before it opens in the US.  The official Star Wars UK Twitter account confirmed what many had already suspected today, tweeting, "Stay on target! #RogueOne blasts into UK cinemas on December 15. All wings report in...".  This happened last year as well with The Force Awakens, and is normal for most films as are released on Thursdays, rather than Fridays, in the UK.
