After Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, Disney and Lucasfilm swung heavily toward television series for the Star Wars universe. There has been talk about a new film starring Daisy Ridley as Rey Skywalker trying to resurrect the Jedi order, but nothing concrete is in the works yet. But that doesn't mean the end of Star Wars feature films.
Star Wars: Starfighter is a video game that was released in 2001. But it's also the next Star Wars movie from Lucasfilm. The official announcement was made yesterday during a Star Wars Celebration event in Tokyo. There's even a short teaser, although with little information.
The movie will be directed by Shawn Levy and will star Ryan Gosling. It will be set a few years after the events of The Rise of Skywalker, but Star Wars: Starfighter will be a standalone feature with all new characters. Filming is scheduled to begin this fall, and the projected released date will be May 28, 2027. Read what we know about Star Wars: Starfighter so far at People.
I would encourage Lucas to come up with a new adventure far, far away from anything called Star Wars. please
