Star Wars is entering a new era. While TV shows like Skeleton Crew and Ahsoka find gaps in the existing timeline, the movies are pushing ever forward, like in the upcoming New Jedi Order, or ever backward, like in James Mangold’s Dawn of the Jedi. But a new addition to the Star Wars film roster, Shawn Levy’s Star Wars: Starfighter, is actually shaping up to provide an interesting bridge between the old and new era.
Our first description of what the movie will depict suggests it won’t just be a one-off adventure — it may actually set up Rey Skywalker’s return to the big screen.
