There are specific reasons why Wedge Antilles, the beloved starfighter pilot for the Rebel Alliance in the original Star Wars trilogy, wasn't included in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
Despite both Red and Gold Leader making a surprise appearance in the film during the Battle of Scarif, Wedge was nowhere to be seen. Lucasfilm Story Group's Pablo Hidalgo explained on Twitter that Wedge wouldn't actually be there in the battle, as the starfighter pilot had never seen the Death Star before A New Hope. Wedge famously says "Look at the size of that thing!" when he first sees the Death Star in Episode IV, and that was the line Hidalgo and Lucasfilm were trying to preserve.
