LOS ANGELES, April 18 — Oscar-nominated actor Ryan Gosling will star in a new Star Wars film that will reach movie theatres in May 2027, Walt Disney’s Lucasfilm announced yesterday.

Star Wars: Starfighter will take place five years after the events of 2019’s The Rise of Skywalker, a Lucasfilm statement said.

The movie is “an entirely new adventure featuring all-new characters set in a period of time that has not been explored on screen yet,” the statement said.
