We now know who will be joining Ryan Gosling in a galaxy far, far away.

Lucasfilm has announced the entire main cast for the upcoming film Star Wars: Starfighter. The announcement arrives the same day production on the movie officially starts in the U.K.

Joining Gosling in the film are Amy Adams, Matt Smith, Mia Goth, Aaron Pierre, Simon Bird, Jamael Westman, Daniel Ings and Flynn Gray.

Star Wars: Starfighter will serve as a stand-alone adventure set in the Star Wars universe. The completely original story is set in a time period that has never been explored in any previous Star Wars projects.

Shawn Levy is directing the film from a script by Jonathan Tropper. Levy also produces along with Lucasfilm head Kathleen Kennedy. In addition to starring, Gosling will executive produce.

“I feel a profound sense of excitement and honor as we begin production on Star Wars: Starfighter,” Levy said. “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 story can do, 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.”

Lucasfilm shared a photo of Gosling and Gray on the Star Wars: Starfighter set to social media. The image is in black and white and finds Gosling leaning up against a vehicle while Gray sits on its hood.

“Day 1: A whole new adventure begins #Starfighter,” the caption reads.

Star Wars: Starfighter blasts into movie theaters on May 28, 2027.

The summer I followed community guidelines.

Prime Video has released a statement reminding fans of The Summer I Turned Pretty to not participate in bullying behavior on social media targeted toward members of the show’s cast.

The official Summer I Turned Pretty TikTok account has shared a video graphic with the message, “The summer we started acting normal online,” written in the style of the show’s title card.

Its accompanying caption reads, “The show isn’t real but the people playing the characters are.”

The warning message comes after producers for the show have seen “more opportunity for toxic behavior online, where most users feel they can hurl anonymous, overly harsh criticisms,” according to Variety.

This is not the first time Prime Video has issued a warning to fans about online behavior. The streaming service issued a statement asking fans of The Summer I Turned Pretty to keep online discourse respectful before the third and final season of the show debuted in July.

“PSA for the Summer community,” the show’s official social accounts shared at the time. “Cousins is our safe place. Everything good, everything magical. Let’s keep the conversation kind this summer.”

Prime Video listed community guidelines along with the public service announcement, saying it has a zero tolerance policy for hate speech or bullying, targeting cast or crew and harassing or doxxing members of the community.

New episodes of The Summer I Turned Pretty debut each Wednesday through Sept. 17.

Goldstein co-wrote the film with William Bridges, who also makes his directorial debut on the project. Steven Cree, Zawe Ashton and Jenna Coleman also star.

Don’t go looking for Denzel Washington at the cinema.

The actor opened up about his moviegoing habits — or lack thereof — in a recent video interview with director Spike Lee and A$AP Rocky for GQ.

During the interview, Rocky asked Washington about his favorite cinematic moments from Lee’s filmography. “Do you have any dolly shots of this guy that you admire?” Rocky said.

“I don’t watch movies, man. I really don’t,” Washington responded. “I’m just being honest with you. I don’t watch movies, man. I don’t go to the movies, I don’t watch movies.”

The rapper asked if Washington’s disinterest is due to the fact that he is a movie star himself.

“Probably,” Washington said. “I’m tired of movies.”

Lee then asked how many films Washington has acted in.

“Too many,” Washington said, before saying he believes he’s made around 50 movies during the span of his career.

One of those films is Lee’s most recent feature, Highest 2 Lowest, which marks his fifth collaboration with Washington. Rocky co-stars in the film, which released in theaters on Aug. 15 and will arrive on Apple TV+ on Sept. 5.
