Star Wars: Rogue Squadron is an upcoming Star Wars film. It will be the first movie of the new Star Wars film series. It will be released on December 22, 2023.
Synopsis
The story will introduce a new generation of starfighter pilots as they earn their wings and risk their lives in a boundary-pushing, high-speed thrill-ride, and move the saga into the future era of the galaxy. Lock S-foils in attack position: Rogue Squadron arrives in theaters Christmas 2023.[1]
Development
According to an IGN interview with Patty Jenkins, Rogue Squadron will be an entirely new and original story and not an adaptation of the novel and video game series.[2]
During an interview for Wonder Woman 1984 on December 14, 2020, Patty Jenkins confirmed that a writer was already hired for Rogue Squadron, and that he has been working on the film's story treatment "for awhile," and that the treatment was nearly finished.[3]
According to The Wall Street Journal, Disney CEO Bob Iger wants this to be more accessible to general audiences than the company's previous Star Wars projects.[4]
On June 1, 2021, it was reported that Aline Bonetto had been hired as the production designer for the film.[5]
On June 25, 2021, The Hollywood Reporter reported that Lucasfilm had hired Matthew Robinson to write the screenplay for the film. Pre-production will begin this fall, with a targeted 2022 filming start date.[6]
On November 8, 2021, The Hollywood Reporter reported the film would be delayed.
On February 25, 2022, it was reported that the film would not be delayed, despite previous reports.[7]
Trivia
- The film shares the same title of the video game series, Star Wars: Rogue Squadron. Four games in the series were released from 1998 to 2003 by Nintendo 64 and GameCube.
