Some film franchises are big, but *Star Wars* is in a league of its own. Growing up with the stories from a galaxy far, far away – now available on Disney+ – created a truly dedicated fanbase. The *Star Wars* universe is heading back to the big screen with Shawn Levy’s *Starfighter*, and while it’s just a rumor, the idea of the Jedi being involved is surprisingly exciting.
It’s been a while since a *Star Wars* movie hit theaters after the conclusion of *The Rise of Skywalker*. Now, with *Starfighter* on the horizon, excitement is growing. A recent report from ComicBook suggests the Jedi will play a significant role in the film, which takes place after *The Rise of Skywalker*. This comes as a surprise to many fans who expected *Starfighter* to center more on pilots and characters without Force abilities.
We should probably be skeptical about this rumor for now, as it might not be accurate. However, with The First Order gone, it makes sense that we could start seeing more Jedi emerge, since Kylo Ren and the Knights of Ren are no longer actively hunting them.

The initial glimpse of *Star Wars: Starfighter* caused a huge buzz online, and excitement for the film has been growing ever since. Director Shawn Levy has brought together a talented cast, featuring Ryan Gosling, horror star Mia Goth, and the acclaimed Amy Adams. However, the suggestion that Jedi Knights will play a significant role is recent, and I expect fans will have strong feelings about it if it proves to be accurate.
If this rumor is true, it might link the upcoming *Starfighter* project to the movie Daisy Ridley is making about Rey. That movie is expected to show Rey building a new Jedi Order after the defeat of The First Order. While details about the film are scarce, many fans, including myself, are hoping John Boyega will reprise his role as Finn and finally explore his character’s Force powers. However, his involvement hasn’t been officially confirmed yet.

It’s been a while since we’ve seen a new *Star Wars* movie – the last one, *The Rise of Skywalker*, came out in 2019. But that’s about to change with *Starfighter*, which started filming in August. We’re hoping to learn more about the film soon, and especially whether it will feature Jedi.
Excitement for the movie *Starfighter* has been building for the last year. Not only does it have a fantastic cast, but the fact that Shawn Levy is directing is a huge plus, particularly given his success with *Deadpool & Wolverine* and *Stranger Things*.
The new *Star Wars* movie, *Starfighter*, is scheduled to come out in theaters on May 28, 2027. That means fans will have a bit of a wait, as it won’t be released in 2026. Hopefully, Lucasfilm will share more details about the film soon!
