A new theatrical Star Wars movie is on the way — and this time, it actually has a premiere date. At Star Wars Celebration in Japan, Lucasfilm announced Star Wars: Starfighter, a standalone feature that is set five years after The Rise of Skywalker.
It’s being directed by Shawn Levy, who most recently directed Deadpool & Wolverine, and will star Ryan Gosling. Production is due to begin this fall, and the movie will hit theaters on May 28th, 2027. The new movie is described as “an entirely new adventure featuring all-new characters set in a period of time that has not been explored on screen yet.”
