On the left we have Jyn Erso (Jan Ors from Dark Forces). On the right we have the unnamed version of "Kyle Katarn". However, I think they may doing some role-reversals on these two. "Kyle" will be the pilot/side-kick while Jyn will be the tough/butt-kicker.

The Death Star plans will be recovered very early in the movie. Then, the plot will revolve around destroying the "Dark Trooper" project (I think they are calling it Death Trooper in this film).

OR

The plot will revolve around stealing the Death Star plans. Along the way, they'll discover the Death Trooper project...and there will be sequels about it!

A very interesting turn/twist for me would be if the "Kyle" character on the right is actually Ezra Bridger from the Star Wars: Rebels animated series. I believe that series began about 5 years before the events of "A New Hope". Ezra seems to be aged 15 to 18 in that series. So, this "Kyle" looking guy could be Ezra in his early to mid-20s.

Whoever this "Kyle" guy is, he and Jyn could be the parents of Poe Dameron...and Rey! He could also be the younger version of whatever character Benecio Del Toro will play in Episode 8!
