Ryan Gosling seems to have dived deep into the world of Star Wars: Starfighter. Director Shawn Levy shared the actor's first look from the film on Wednesday. Taken in front of the Mediterranean Sea, the photo features Gosling and Flynn Gray in costume, on set.

In the caption, Levy wrote, "Somewhere in the Mediterranean Sea #Starfighter." Star Wars: Starfighter is directed by Shawn Levy from a script by Jonathan Tropper. Levy is known for his work on Stranger Things and the Night at the Museum trilogy.

Director Shawn Levy has described the film as a standalone entry, taking place five years after the events of Star Wars: Episode IX — The Rise of Skywalker and thereby continuing past what is currently the endpoint of the saga’s main timeline.

Talking about the film previously, Levy said, “I feel a profound sense of excitement and honour as we begin production on Star Wars: Starfighter. From the day Kathy Kennedy called me up, inviting me to develop an original adventure in this incredible Star Wars galaxy, this experience has been a dream come true, creatively and personally. Star Wars shaped my sense of what a story can do and how characters and cinematic moments can live with us forever. To join this storytelling galaxy with such brilliant collaborators onscreen and off is the thrill of a lifetime.”

Apart from Gosling and Gray, the film will also star Mia Goth, Amy Adams, Aaron Pierre, Simon Bird, Jamael Westman, and Daniel Ings, with Matt Smith playing the antagonist. The film is produced by Levy and Kathleen Kennedy, who is the president of Lucasfilm. Gosling, Dan Levine, Mary McLaglen, and Josh McLaglen serve as executive producers on the film.

Production on Star Wars: Starfighter is gearing up for a fall start, with the movie’s theatrical debut planned for May 28, 2027.
