“I feel a profound sense of excitement and honor as we begin production on Star Wars: Starfighter,” says filmmaker Shawn Levy. “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.”
RELEASE
Levy’s movie is the first of many new projects being developed by Lucasfilm. These include films by Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, James Mangold, Taika Waititi, and a new trilogy by Simon Kinberg. Star Wars: Starfighter, on the other hand, is set approximately five years after the events of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.
Shawn Levy has amassed an all-star cast to bring the adventure home, and judging by this announcement, the film looks set to be one of the most anticipated Star Wars films to date. Exciting times ahead for the Star Wars universe.
Star Wars: Starfighter arrives in theaters on Memorial Day 2027.
