What’s the story of ‘Star Wars: Starfighter’?

With the official news out there, we now have a proper, if basic bit of detail for the movie. It’s described as “a standalone adventure taking place approximately five years after the events of 2019’s ‘Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker’. It is an entirely new adventure featuring all-new characters set in a period of time that has not been explored on screen yet.”

Gosling is playing a character that must protect a young charge (Gray) against evil pursuers. Adams will be the boy’s mother.

Smith will be hunting Gosling down and Goth will be on the villain’s scheming side. The other roles are unknown for now.

Jonathan Tropper, who collaborated with Levy on films such as ‘This is Where I Leave You’ and ‘The Adam Project,’ has been working on a script for over a year. Levy is also producing the feature via his 21 Laps banner, joining ‘Star Wars’ steward Kathleen Kennedy.

Levy offered the following statement to mark the start of production work on the movie:

“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.”

When will ‘Star Wars: Starfighter’ be in theaters?

‘Star Wars: Starfighter’ is now due to arrive on May 28th, 2027. May the force be with it…
