Ryan Gosling's Star Wars: Starfighter has officially made Star Wars history, though the record comes with a massive financial risk. The standalone film follows his character, Kade Auberon, on adventures across the galaxy at the controls of a decommissioned starfighter, the G17 Imperial Reaper, billed as the fastest ever built. Kade's journey pulls him into the orbit of his nephew, played by Flynn Gray, who joins him on the dangerous trek. Directed by Shawn Levy and shot at Pinewood Studios outside London, the film is scheduled to arrive May 28, 2027, set five years after the events of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker.
