Rogue One: Spotify left a Star Wars Easter egg on the soundtrack

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story type Movie

As Rogue One begins its opening crawl at the box office this weekend (even if the movie itself doesn’t have one), the first standalone film from the Star Wars galaxy has also made its mark on Spotify.

Pull up Michael Giacchino’s score on the music service and you’ll find a fun Easter egg fit for any Star Wars fan: As you listen to the music of Rogue One, the play scroll at the bottom of the page becomes a lightsaber. Click that lightsaber, and it changes from blue to green to red.

The lightsaber cameo is especially interesting because (minor spoiler) the elegant weapon for a more civilized age doesn’t get much screen time at all in Rogue One. Aside from one appearing in a pivotal scene near the film’s end, the fighting in this film is mainly done with blasters and similar handheld weapons.

But the Star Wars fun isn’t just restricted to Rogue One — if you queue up The Force Awakens soundtrack on Spotify, the lightsaber appears there as well.

Take a look at the Easter Egg below. Rogue One is playing in theaters now.
