I think you could have that movie without Tarkin, if they just never actually showed him on screen and just were finding out about his actions as they went along. That's one way to do a movie like this, just show the team and focus completely on them and their reactions finding out about this.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
