Forbes reports that Star Wars: Starfighter cost more to produce than Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
In summary:
"Disney revealed that its upcoming sci-fi film *Star Wars: Starfighter* cost $226.5 million to make by the time filming finished at Pinewood Studios. Set five years after *The Rise of Skywalker*, the movie stars Ryan Gosling, Flynn Gray, Amy Adams, Matt Smith, and Mia Goth, with Shawn Levy directing. Financial statements from the production company, Blue Mist Productions, covered spending up to January 31. The U.K. government's Audio-Visual Expenditure Credit provided a $51.5 million refund, reducing net spending to $175 million. Filming also took place in Sardinia, Italy, to maximize funding benefits. Additional visual effects work in London could increase future refunds and costs before the scheduled release in late May next year."
Star Wars: Starfighter is due to release on 28th May 2027, coinciding with the 50th anniversary of George Lucas' space opera.
