Thescreescore – While promoting his latest cinematic venture, Frankenstein, Oscar Isaac ignited a firestorm of speculation amongst Star Wars aficionados. The question on everyone’s mind? Will the acclaimed actor reunite with his Drive co-star, Ryan Gosling, in the upcoming Star Wars: Starfighter? The possibility, teased during an interview at the Toronto International Film Festival with Entertainment Weekly, has sent ripples through the galaxy far, far away.
Isaac, known for his captivating portrayal of Poe Dameron in the sequel trilogy, expressed a cautiously optimistic stance. When pressed about a potential reunion with Gosling, who’s slated to lead Starfighter, Isaac responded with characteristic charm and ambiguity: "Star Wars, right! We’ll see, I mean yeah!" and "I’m ready for it. You let me know when." His words, though carefully chosen, hint at a willingness to return to the franchise, fueling the flames of fan anticipation.
Star Wars: Starfighter, directed by Shawn Levy and boasting a stellar cast including Matt Smith, Amy Adams, and Mia Goth, is set for release on May 28, 2027. The film is positioned as a standalone narrative, unfolding five years after The Rise of Skywalker, focusing on a new generation of characters. This narrative structure initially suggests Isaac’s involvement might be a stretch. However, his expressed interest keeps the door ajar for a future collaboration, perhaps in a subsequent Star Wars project.
