Whereas selling his new film Frankenstein, Oscar Isaac addressed the opportunity of a reunion along with his Drive (2011) co-star Ryan Gosling, had been he to return to the Star Wars franchise. Gosling is ready to steer the brand new installment, Star Wars: Starfighter, whereas one among Isaac’s largest roles is that of Poe Dameron all through the Star Wars sequel trilogy.
In an interview with Leisure Weekly on the Toronto Worldwide Movie Pageant, Isaac usually expressed constructive curiosity in returning to Star Wars, with Starfighter being the primary level of debate. ET requested: “We want to see you back, reunited with Ryan Gosling. Will that happen anytime soon for Star Wars?” Isaac responded with feedback comparable to “Star Wars, right! We’ll see, I mean yeah!” and “I’m ready for it. You let me know when.”
Star Wars: Starfighter’s launch date is confirmed to be Might 28, 2027, the second slated Star Wars film following the sequel trilogy’s conclusion in 2019, after 2026’s The Mandalorian & Grogu. Starfighter is being directed by Shawn Levy and can be confirmed to star Matt Smith, Amy Adams, Aaron Pierre, Mia Goth, Simon Hen, and Daniel Ings.

Starfighter is confirmed to happen 5 years after Star Wars: Episode IX – The Rise of Skywalker, and is being pitched as a standalone story specializing in a completely new set of characters. Thus, Issac’s return may not match into this film, because it was seemingly imagined as disparate from the Skywalker Saga. Nevertheless, his curiosity spells a possible reunion down the road.
Oscar Isaac and Ryan Gosling are two large stars in Hollywood who’ve labored collectively earlier than, and bringing them collectively may show to be profitable for Star Wars. Nevertheless, with Starfighter’s forged seemingly set because it begins manufacturing, Isaac returning to Star Wars and doubtlessly sharing the display with Gosling is an concept that will must be shelved for a later date.

Moreover, Star Wars desperately wants contemporary tales that are not too hooked up to the overdone Skywalker Saga, and Starfighter is essentially the most thrilling Star Wars film in years exactly as a result of it purports to be this, bringing in a brand new forged of promising A-listers and up-and-comers. Thus, Isaac’s look on this film might wreck it.
Regardless of the delays with the proposed New Jedi Order film centered round Daisy Ridley’s Rey, finally bringing again the forged of the sequel trilogy could possibly be a great factor, permitting them an opportunity at a greater story following the Rise of Skywalker’s disappointing reception. The ultimate member of Ridley and Isaac’s trio, John Boyega can be open to returning to Star Wars.
Whereas Isaac sometime enjoying Poe once more is definitely doable, I consider it isn’t going to be in Star Wars: Starfighter. If it had been to occur, Gosling must be part of the extra direct sequel to the sequel trilogy, doubtless nonetheless a number of years sooner or later.
