‎
‎Gosling will lead the sci-fi action feature, playing a protector tasked with shielding a mysterious young charge from dangerous enemies. Goth has signed on to portray one of the central antagonists—a role previously linked to Mikey Madison, whose negotiations reportedly fell through due to financial disagreements.
‎
‎Star Wars: Starfighter is a self-contained story set in the galaxy far, far away, but it will not connect to the iconic Skywalker Saga. The film is set approximately five years after Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (2019) and promises to explore an entirely new era in the franchise’s timeline.
‎
‎“This is a stand-alone. It’s not a prequel, not a sequel. It’s a new adventure,” Levy said at Star Wars Celebration in Japan this April.
‎
‎Goth, best known for her work in Ti West’s horror trilogy (X, Pearl, MaXXXine), continues to expand her profile with major roles in Guillermo del Toro’s upcoming Frankenstein and Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey.

‎Lucasfilm declined to comment on the casting news, first reported by The InSneider newsletter. HA

'Die My Love' Review: Jennifer Lawrence Spirals Into Psychosis While Robert Pattinson Plunges Into Despair in Lynne Ramsay’s Jarring Character Study

Image
In Die My Love, Lynne Ramsay delivers her most haunting and unflinching film to date. Adapted from Ariana Harwicz’s searing debut novel, the Cannes 2025 competition title plunges into the disturbed psyche of a woman teetering between feral desire, isolation, and mental collapse. ‎ Jennifer Lawrence in 'Die My Love.' ‎Courtesy of Cannes Film Festival ‎ ‎Jennifer Lawrence embodies Grace with unnerving ferocity—a mother hollowed by postpartum trauma, who stalks through her rural home like a caged animal. Her grip on reality loosens as her marriage to Jackson (Robert Pattinson) decays under the weight of neglect, longing, and disconnection. Ramsay crafts a narrative of emotional and psychological disintegration, where love becomes indistinguishable from desperation. ‎ ‎Pattinson, in one of his most quietly affecting roles, plays Jackson as a man worn thin by grief and helplessness. Their scenes simmer with unease. Ramsay avoids sentimentality, instead exposing the raw n...

‎'Tornado' Review: A Samurai's Daughter Faces the Winds of Change in 1790s Scotland

Image
‎Wind-scoured hills and rugged moors of 18th-century Scotland become the unlikely stage for a collision of worlds in John Maclean’s evocative film Tornado. This time, the Western genre sheds its American roots and takes on a new form—blending samurai tradition with the harsh realities of the Scottish Highlands.

‎'Clown in a Cornfield' Review: Eli Craig’s Gory Teen Slasher Mixes Killer Clowns, Viral Horror, and Small-Town Secrets

‎There’s something viscerally unnerving about a cornfield. Those dry, serrated stalks stretch endlessly skyward, creating a labyrinth of shadows perfect for hiding something—or someone—sinister.
