He\u2019s bringing some top-notch photographic prowess to the production. Yesterday, Levy confirmed that Claudio Miranda, the director of photography on Top Gun: Maverick and Tron: Legacy, among other films helmed by Joseph Kosinski, will shoot the\u00a0Star Wars spin-off. <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CultureCrave\/status\/1961220018596872656\" rel=\"nofollow\">Responding to an X post by Culture Craft<\/a>, which claimed Mirada would \u201creportedly serve as cinematographer on Star Wars: Starfighter,\u201d Levy wrote, \u201cConfirmed. Lucky me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Actually, \u201clucky us.\u201d The first Star Wars movie since 2019 already lined up an impressive cast of actors, including Ryan Gosling, Amay Adams, Aaron Pierre, Matt Smith, and Mia Goth. But Miranda\u2019s inventive visuals helped make Maverick, Tron: Legacy, and this summer\u2019s F1 unmissable theatrical experiences. Does this mean he\u2019ll strap a shit-ton of cameras to the sides of an X-wing and make Starfighter sing in 4DX? It couldn\u2019t hurt. In the past few years, Miranda has revolutionized cockpit photography, which could help Star Wars break away from the cinematic grammar it has been leaning on since the \u201970s. Miranda has done plenty of magic with digital effects, too. He won an Academy Award for Life Of Pi and earned a nomination for The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button. With that kind of resume, making Ryan Gosling look like a rogue leader should be a cakewalk.<\/p>\n<p>                    <a class=\"auto cell copy-container noimage\" href=\"https:\/\/www.avclub.com\/amy-adams-aaron-pierre-star-wars-starfighter\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Star Wars: Starfighter gets more star-studded with Amy Adams and Aaron Pierre<\/a><a class=\"auto cell copy-container noimage\" href=\"https:\/\/www.avclub.com\/matt-smith-star-wars-starfighter-casting\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Matt Smith recruited for Star Wars: Starfighter<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Shawn Levy isn\u2019t simply enlisting Hollywood A-listers for his upcoming Star Wars: Starfighter.
