I don’t think that the insigna is canon. A fleet or vice admiral would probably be in charge of the construction. A grand admiral would probably we more concerned about the war at hand, and leading the empire’s naval ships. If that makes sense.

For now we don’t know what the guy is doing in the movie. All we can say is that he’s got a gun, a nice outfit, and he’s walking on a battlefield. He could be the Captain Phasma of R1…

That would be disappointing. She was kinda a bust. I hope they don’t do that to us again…

Why would it make more sense ? Real question, not nagging. The insigna he’s wearing (http://www.starwarsnewsnet.com/2016/04/speculation-ben-mendelsohns-character-in-rogueone.html) ?

If they begin to make a “Rogue” franchise, I would love to see Benedict Cumberbatch as an Imperial officer. Good actor with an interesting face, could be great.

I’m seeing some buzz that Ben Mendelssohn’s officer character may in fact be the old EU’s Armand Isard, who was re-canonized by the Tarkin novel. Someone connected to Lucasfilm (I forget exactly who) hinted that we may have seen him before on Twitter yesterday.

His outfit sure looks cool (we have never seen Grand Admiral before in live action). The actor has an interesting “Cushing-like” face. Could be a good vilain for once.
