"The upcoming Star Wars: Starfighter has already attracted its share of big names thanks to director Shawn Levy and star Ryan Gosling. But apparently, they're only the start of the famous figures involved in the work. According to a new report, one of the biggest movie stars alive helped out with a major scene, which is both a testament to the appeal of Star Wars and a sneaky glimpse of what's to come."
"We still know next to nothing about Starfighter, but this anecdote contains more information than you'd think. We did know that Starfighter included multiple scenes filmed on the water, as seemingly every behind-the-scenes photo shared by Levy shows vast expanses of sea. But beyond the question of what lightsabers are doing in a dogfighting movie, mention of mud and pond water should bring one location to mind: the swampy marshes of Dagobah, where Yoda trained Luke Skywalker in The Empire Strikes Back."
Star Wars: Starfighter features director Shawn Levy and star Ryan Gosling and attracted additional major movie figures. Tom Cruise stepped behind a camera on set, photographed a critical scene while standing ankle-deep in mud and pond water, and focused intently to frame shots. Steven Spielberg also visited the production. The scene Cruise assisted with involved a lightsaber duel filmed on or near water. Behind-the-scenes photos show extensive sea locations, and the presence of swampy mud evokes Dagobah's marshes where Yoda trained Luke Skywalker, though a new swampy planet remains possible.
