Filming has been underway on Rogue One: A Star Wars Story since the summer and will see Gareth Edwards back in the director's chair - sadly, we have got over a year to go until the film finally hits the big screen.

And while Tudyk couldn't give anything away about the plot, he did hint that most of his scenes are with Diego Luna and Felicity Jones and that he's having a great time.

Speaking to Digital Spy, the actor said: "It's more fun on a movie set than I've had in a very long time," he said. "I didn't know what to expect. I really like my fellow cast-members - Diego Luna and Felicity Jones, I see them a lot, most of my scenes are with them. And Gareth is great.

"There's always those days that are really hard. You're wet, you're cold, it's way early... there's some interesting things when you're on-set that can be challenging. But when you get into that moment of, 'This is hard, this is terrible, I'm miserable' and then you're like, 'Oh look, it's Star Wars!' and that feeling is immediately erased. It doesn't last for a breath - you can't even get it out without going, 'But look over there! And look at that!'"

The film's characters have not yet been revealed Tudyk, Jones, and Luna are joined on the cast list by Ben Mendelsohn, Mads Mikkelsen, Riz Ahmed, and Forest Whitaker.

2015 has been a busy year for Tudyk as he has already lent his voice to a string of animation movies, including The Good Dinosaur, Zootropolis, and Moana and we have seen him in Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials and Trumbo.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is released 16th December 2016.
