    Matt Smith has spilled that filming on Star Wars: Starfighter has wrapped - and he is confident it's going to be a major hit

    The 43-year-old actor stars alongside Ryan Gosling, Mia Goth, Simon Bird and Daniel Ings among a lengthy cast in the movie, which is being directed by Shawn Levy who helmed Deadpool and Wolverine, Free Guy and The Adam Project as well as serving as an ex ecutive producer on Netflix series Stranger Things since 2016.


    Despite the apparent fatigue amongst the Star Wars fan community for recent projects from Disney - who bought Lucasfilm and the rights to the sci-fi franchise as well as Indiana Jones from George Lucas for approximately $4.05 billion in 2012 - Smith is certain this film "has legs" and will please devotees of a galaxy far, far away.
