According to director Shawn Levy<\/a>, Star Wars: Starfighter<\/a> has already undergone a major change.<\/p>\n

Levy recently appeared on the podcast On Film\u2026 With Kevin McCarthy<\/a>. During the conversation, Levy discussed his work on Starfighter and revealed that he recently had to change one of his original ideas in the third act.<\/p>\n

What major change has happened to Star Wars: Starfighter?<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had a whole different idea for something in the third act, and then things didn\u2019t align, and I was forced to come up with a new idea,\u201d Levy said about Starfighter. \u201cAnd I\u2019m literally right now shooting that section of the movie. And every day, I\u2019m grateful that the way I was supposed to do it didn\u2019t work out, because the new idea that it forced me to explore is so much better than the original idea would have been.\u201d<\/p>\n

Levy has worked on blockbusters for Netflix<\/a> and Marvel<\/a>. However, working on a Star Wars <\/a>movie is a completely different experience.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s harder and a more unique pressure than any other movie you can make because you go into it understanding how deeply emotional the connection with audiences is,\u201d Levy explained. \u201cYou could argue that\u2019s true of Marvel, that\u2019s true of other franchises, but nothing is as religious an allegiance as Star Wars. And so, the need, the pressure, self-inflicted mostly, to get it right \u2014 that\u2019s intense.\u201d<\/p>\n

Star Wars: Starfighter is an original story set roughly five years after the events of The Rise of Skywalker. Ryan Gosling<\/a> leads the sci-fi adventure as a character who must protect a young boy, played by Flynn Gray<\/a>. Matt Smith, Mia Goth, Aaron Pierre, Simon Bird, Jamael Westman, Daniel Ings, and Amy Adams also star.<\/p>\n

Levy directs Star Wars: Starfighter from a screenplay by Jonathan Tropper. Levy will produce alongside Lucasfilm<\/a> president Kathleen Kennedy.<\/p>\n
