[00:01] Director Shawn Levy and star Ryan Gosling took the stage at D23 to talk about the next Star Wars movie coming May 28th, 2027, Starf Fighter. Gosling is playing a character named Cade Aubberon. He wears a very cool black
[00:14] skull and crossbones, but the skull is actually an inverted rebel crest. Very cool. Now, I can't show you the footage, but I can describe it. In the scene, the garage space and lifts a dusty cover off of a Starf Fighter engine and runs his
[00:28] hand along it. Ryan Gosling as Cade enters and says, "Hey, didn't I tell you asks, "What kind of star fighter is this?" And Cade responds, "It's a decommissioned G17 Imperial Reaper, the fastest star fighter ever built." And
[00:41] Cade responds, "There's a reason for that." And he covers the engine back up. Then we see a close-up of Cade buckling in a harness with an Imperial crest on it. And then we see the sea raft. Yes, the raft that we saw Gossling and Gray
[00:54] on in the set photo glides over a sea pulled by a parasail as these huge water surging up toward the sky like cyclones. I have no idea what these are, but they look awesome and otherworldly. Very Avatar-esque if you ask me. And you
[01:07] background screen behind God and Levy when they were on stage. We can show you this. And the footage ends with Cade pulling the cover back off of the G17 And the movie title appears over the engine. And the title incorporates the
[01:20] original Star Wars logo of the raaked letters, which is such a cool throwback. So, we have never heard of a G17 Reaper before. But yes, it does sound like the Grim Reaper or you know, the Reaper that Blue Oyster Cole told us not to fear.
[01:33] ever heard of until now? What was the Empire hiding with it? Well, this movie will be set around 40 years after the Empire fell. And in a galaxy where hyperspace travel is possible, why is this non-hyperspace speed important? Can
[01:47] Or did the Empire need it for specific missions in order to go fast within one planet's atmosphere since you're never supposed to hyperspace jump within an sequel trilogy a couple times? >> What are you doing? Light speed
[02:01] star fighter commissioned as a passion project by a certain Imperial who in his younger years had a need for speed, Darth Vader, back when he was Anakin Tatooine's muscle circuit. The fact that this G17 Reaper might have been the hot
[02:16] pretty fun twist for Starf Fighter. And any references we can get to pod racing justice for Rats Tyrell. >> His whole family is here today to cheer him on. Marvel head Kevin Feige said that he saw
[02:30] it. And now I kind of see why. It's really a classic gearhead movie the way the original Iron Man was. The cast of this movie is also going to include Amy Adams, Matt Smith, Aaron Pierre, and Mia Goth. A stacked cast. I can't wait for
[02:43] this movie. Subscribe to New Rockstars for more updates.
