Making Rogue One: A Star Wars Story: A Behind-the-scenes Photo Journal is a cancelled[2] real-world reference book focusing on the production of the 2016 anthology film Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. The 256 page title would have been authored by Josh Kushins. It was originally slated for release on October 3, 2017 by Abrams Books.[1] Around July 3, 2017, the listing of the book at Abrams's website was deleted,[2] and although Amazon and some other websites still list the book,[1] it was never released. Jonathan W. Rinzler, the author of the similarly canceled book The Making of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, said that he was involved with the hiring of Kushins for Making Rogue One.[3]
