‘Star Wars: Starfighter’ First Look: Ryan Gosling Shows Off Tight Pants, Ocean Location
From a galaxy far, far away to somewhere in the Mediterranean Sea…
Director Shawn Levy has revealed the first look at “Star Wars: Starfighter,” a spinoff in the space opera series starring Ryan Gosling and newcomer Flynn Gray. Plot details are unclear for the standalone film, which focuses on new characters in the “Star Wars” universe, though the story is reportedly set about five years after the events of 2019’s “Star Wars: Episode IX — The Rise of Skywalker,” which ends with a victory for the Resistance.
“Star Wars: Starfighter” is slated to release in theaters on May 28, 2027. That’s roughly a year after another spinoff adventure, “The Mandalorian & Grogu,” which is scheduled for May 2026 and marks the first “Star Wars” feature since “The Rise of Skywalker” in December 2019.
