    Tom Cruise Filmed a Lightsaber Duel?! Starfighter Confirms Force Users

    This week on the Star Wars Time Show, Matt and Young Nick break down two stories that hit very different parts of the Star Wars fandom, but both carry real implications for the future of the franchise. First, we dive into a growing rumor circulating within the industry that Dave Filoni could be preparing to take on a larger leadership role at Lucasfilm, potentially alongside Lynwen Brennan, with longtime president Kathleen Kennedy possibly nearing retirement. We discuss where the rumor is coming from, how realistic it actually is, and what a Filoni-led Lucasfilm might look like in practice, creatively and structurally. Then we pivot to the bigger surprise of the week: reports that Tom Cruise filmed a lightsaber duel for Shawn Levy’s upcoming Star Wars film, Starfighter. While Cruise’s involvement is eye-catching on its own, the real takeaway is what this confirms about the movie itself: Force users and lightsabers are officially part of the story. We break down why that matters, what it tells us about the direction of Star Wars films, and why this changes expectations for Starfighter. Topics covered include: How credible the Filoni leadership rumors really are What Lucasfilm leadership transitions usually look like Why lightsabers in Starfighter are a much bigger deal than Cruise’s cameo What this means for Force users in future Star Wars films As always, we separate rumor from reality and talk through what actually matters long-term for Star Wars. 🎙 New episodes every week 📺 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/StarWarsTimeShow 🎧 Spotify: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/starwarstimeshow
