As of right now, I have two separate edits ongoing. I have a regular edit, that just combines episodes 1-4 with some trimming and restructuring, and a “No Mon Mothma” version that has the same cuts as the regular edit but just focus’ the story on Cassian, Syril, and Dedra.
As recommended by Solemn.Philosopher, if the Mon Mothma’s plot doesn’t tie into the heist at all, I will introduce her plot in the 2nd movie post heist. If it does tie in, I will drop the “No Mon Mothma” edit, and continue with the regular one.
Once episode 5 is out, I should be able to decide which one to go forward with.
