Evolve Media’s newly-launched media offering, FEEDS Media, has teamed up with movie news and review site Comingsoon.net to help Disney and LucasFilms launch Rogue One: A Star Wars Story on BluRay and DVD in Australia.
FEEDS Media and Disney recently hosted an exclusive release party for the film at Sydney’s boutique Golden Age Cinema and Bar, which featured a screening of never-before-seen bonus footage from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.

To help amplify the event and engage fans across social media, FEEDS Media also leveraged its influencer relationships to invite a specific mix of high-profile Star Wars enthusiasts and super fans to the event.
