New stories are actually the biggest tease here.
Lucasfilm kickstarts the filmic side of the Star Wars franchise once more with an announcement of the cast for the upcoming feature film–Star Wars: Starfighter. The feature will be helmed by director Shawn Levy.
And the cast has weight. Set to star Ryan Gosling as the titular lead, flanked by actors Flynn Gray, Matt Smith, Mia Goth, Aaron Pierre, Simon Bird, Jamael Westman, Daniel Ings, and Amy Adams.
Production on the standalone original film has already started. And the story is apparently set in a time period never before explored in the Star Wars universe.
Check ou the first look still from the production:
Filmmaker Shawn Levy had this to say about the news:
I feel a profound sense of excitement and honor as we begin production on Star Wars: Starfighter. From the day Kathy Kennedy called me up, inviting me to develop an original adventure in this incredible Star Wars galaxy, this experience has been a dream come true, creatively and personally. Star Wars shaped my sense of what story can do, how characters and cinematic moments can live with us forever. To join this storytelling galaxy with such brilliant collaborators onscreen and off, is the thrill of a lifetime.
Star Wars: Starfighter is slated for cinematic release come May 28, 2027.
