Every director wants to work with Mia Goth. The Pearl and MaXXXine actress seems to get listed for just about every studio franchise, such as Marvel’s Blade, without jumping into blockbuster fare with both feet. Well, that’s about to change. THR confirms an earlier report from Jeff Sneider that Goth is joining Ryan Gosling in Shawn Levy’s Star Wars: Starfighter.
Plot details on Starfighter remain under wraps, but we know that it’s a standalone film set five years after the events in The Rise of Skywalker. Gosling plays a starfighter pilot who must protect his nephew from dangerous pursuers. Goth will play one of those pursuers on their trail.
If Goth brings some of that crazy Infinity Pool energy, this performance could be incredible. This is the same role that Oscar winner Mikey Madison was briefly attached to before the deal imploded.
Coming up for Goth is Guillermo Del Toro’s Frankenstein over at Netflix. She also has a mystery role in Christopher Nolan’s summer blockbuster, The Odyssey.
Star Wars: Starfighter opens May 28th 2027.
