Or perhaps that’s not even what happened in the original script?

Presumably, somebody spotted that hyping up your audience with expectations of hope is a mite cruel when all the Rogue One crew are destined to cop it at the end. Moreover, her sense of doubt feeds into the veneer of gloom that envelops Edwards film and makes it such a fascinatingly offbeat addition to the canon. Jones, in the final movie, never seems so sure of herself and is far more sympathetic. But this wasn’t the version we saw in the final cut either: Erso plays her part in convincing a small band of the rebels to help her in her mission to steal the Death Star plans, but whoever cut the trailer seems to have been laying it on a bit thick, to say the least. By the time October’s effort rolls around, she has become a messianic hyperdrive in human form capable of supercharging the jaded resistance in their fight against the Empire (the trailer also hints Krennic originally had a different scene with Darth Vader).

By August’s trailer, Jyn is still moody and obnoxious, but has begun to morph into a cheery rebel-rouser clinging to hope in the face of almost impossible odds.
