Starfighter, Shawn Levy’s upcoming Star Wars movie, has pushed the franchise further than ever before. Ryan Gosling stars as a pilot who takes on a young ward, not unlike many other Star Wars stories, but it takes place after The Rise of Skywalker, which is the farthest the timeline has advanced. As the movie’s cast rounds out, fans are speculating that it could bring in some forgotten faces, as it doesn’t have any obvious ties to the series’ broader narrative.
The latest addition to the Starfighter cast is a well-known actress, and some onlookers think she could be playing a character who’d been relegated to the depths of the non-canon Legends timeline, but is still popular among hardcore and old-school fans.
