Mia Goth has been confirmed to star in the upcoming film, Star Wars: Starfighter.
Variety revealed that the actor from X and Pearl has joined the cast of the movie, but details about her role are scarce. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Goth will play a villainous role that involves pursuing a child, although it's not been confirmed.
Mikey Madison was reportedly nearing a deal to take on the role but ended up declining due to financial disagreements.

At the event, director Shawn Levy — who recently directed Deadpool & Wolverine — said the movie is "a new adventure" and features "new characters." He added: "It takes place in a new period of time after the battle of Exegol, after Episode 9."
