Ryan Gosling in Talks for Standalone 'Star Wars' Film, Production Set for This Fall
Jan 21, 2025, 10:01 PM
Ryan Gosling, a three-time Oscar nominee, is in negotiations to star in a new 'Star Wars' film directed by Shawn Levy, known for his work on 'Deadpool & Wolverine'. The project, which has been in development for two years, is set to become the next 'Star Wars' movie to enter production, with filming expected to begin this fall. The film is intended to be a standalone story, separate from the Skywalker Saga, and details about its setting and plot remain undisclosed. Levy, who is also producing the film through his 21 Laps banner alongside Lucasfilm's Kathleen Kennedy, had been considering a different project but shifted focus to the 'Star Wars' film following Gosling's involvement. This marks a significant casting move for the franchise, as Gosling is considered an A-lister.
