After Anora’s Mikey Madison Allegedly Passed On Star Wars, Fans Have A Lot Of Thoughts About Her Decision

During the recent Star Wars Celebration weekend, enthusiasts of the distant galaxy got a glimpse into the franchise’s future. One of the most thrilling revelations was the announcement that Ryan Gosling will feature in an upcoming Star Wars movie directed by Shawn Levy, which is expected to begin filming later this year. However, it seems that Oscar-winning actress Mikey Madison won’t be featured alongside him in the film.

It was once speculated that Madison was given a role in Levy’s upcoming “Star Wars” movie, titled “Star Wars: Starfighter”, but it seems she won’t be appearing in it after all. As reported by Variety, Madison has declined the part. Interestingly, the general reaction to her decision has been largely favorable, although for different motives.

Some Fans Think Mikey Madison Is Too Good For Star Wars

I was honestly a bit disappointed that such a great actress as Mikey Madison had decided against joining Star Wars, but it seems, based on the responses, I am very much in the minority. On Variety’s Instagram post reporting that the actress passed, every comment seems to be in favor of the decision.

Many comments suggest that Madison is considered too talented for a project like Star Wars, implying she prioritized artistic integrity over potential financial gain. Some think she wisely steered clear of a fanbase perceived as problematic by many. Others are convinced the movie won’t be good, making her decision to stay away seem wise. Comments also include…

  • With that fandom, I couldn’t blame her, Star Wars is dead and the fandom killed it
  • Oh my god integrity over a payday – God I love this woman. 👏
  • She wants to do more auteur roles, and I don’t blame her.
  • Dodged a bullet there. Shawn Levy is a hack

Although many supporters of Mikey Madison are disappointed that she won’t appear in the upcoming Star Wars film, it’s worth noting that there are others who approve of the casting decision, even if they aren’t necessarily fans of hers.

Some Fans Think Star Wars Is Too Good For Mikey Madison

The second round of reactions to the announcement that Mikey Madison won’t be part of Star Wars: Starfighter can be categorized as those who believe she wasn’t suitable for the franchise, or those who think she made a regrettable decision – either professionally, or financially. Some of these comments are…

  • Might be the type of role she comes to regret not doing.
  • She played a hooker in a very boring movie and then turns down Star Wars? 😂
  • Good for Star Wars. Next.
  • Yeah, those millions of dollars who cares about that

It’s not entirely certain what led Madison to decline the role; perhaps it was a matter of artistic integrity, dissatisfaction with the script, or simply scheduling issues or disputes over contract terms. Regardless, many people seem to believe this was the right move, even if they can’t all agree on the specific reasons. This decision could pave the way for another actress who might be eager to work alongside Ryan Gosling in the Star Wars universe.

The person who steps into that role will be selected imminently. Apart from next year’s “The Mandalorian and Grogu,” Star Wars: Starfighter is the only other Star Wars film with a confirmed release date, meaning production on it is about to start immediately.
