The State of Star Wars: Starfighter Will Be a True Test For the Franchise

Shawn Levy had to make a big change to the third act of Starfighter before filming. Rogue One is proof of why that can be a very good thing. We discuss that and more Stargfighter bits from Levy’s chat with Kevin McCarthy, including what we can expect from Thomas Newman’s score thanks in part to advice legendary composer Danny Elfman gave to Levy years ago. Plus, a premise from The Mandalorian and Grogu is floating around the Bluray rumor mill, are we buying this? Find out! We also tackle tough ones in Will of the Force: Will Mando get a trailer in front of AVATAR? Yes please!
