A little time has passed since we heard something solid on Star Wars films from Deadpool and Wolverine director Shawn LevyBut there have been rumors about the casting. But now, we have a promising update to share.

The screenwriter Jonathan tooper, who is writing the project, recently gave fans a thin but optimistic push of reassurance when he was asked about the state of the film. Too much he said to Screen Rant:

“I am [excited] as well. I hope it is coming first of what you think. “

According to reports, the film is set after Skywalker’s ascentwhich already gives him a unique place on the temporal sequence, which is still a relatively unexplored territory. There is also a buzz around Ryan Gosling Being attached, although nothing has been confirmed yet by Lucasfilm.

There are also relationships that Jodie Comer AND Jesse Plemons They are running for important roles in the film. Once again, the non of the casting has been confirmed.

As for the release program, Kathleen KennedyPresident of Lucasfilm, the previously confirmed Levy film is following The Mandalorian and the Goguwhich affects cinemas on 22 May 2026.

“I’m producing the Mandalorian Film right now, and I’m also producing Shawn Levy’s film, which is later. “

So if things remain on the right way, tooper’s comment could suggest a 2027-2028 version. One thing we know for sure is that they have not yet started shooting the movie.

In the meantime, the Galaxy very, far away is not slowing down. Andor Season 2 falls its first preview episodes on April 22 (USA) and April 23 (United Kingdom) on Disney+and the Daisy Ridley-Led Rey Movie is still cooking, now with The adjustment office‘S George Nolfi Entering to write the script, replacing Peaky Blinders Creator Steven Knight.
