Chris Pine has already spoken to Patty Jenkins about her “Star Wars” entry “Rogue Squadron”. Could he play a role?
Chris Pine currently enjoys shining as a man at the side of a strong woman in “Wonder Woman 1984”. But with a protector like the Amazon Diana Prince alias Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) he will probably not be able to count on a conflict in a galaxy far, far away. Because it could well be that the 40-year-old will have to rely on his skills as a pilot of an X-Wing star fighter if he should star in director Patty Jenkins’ “Star Wars” film “Rogue Squadron”.
In an interview with Collider In addition to his current film “Wonder Woman 1984”, Pine also spoke about Jenkins’ film project “Rogue Squadron”. The next “Star Wars” movie for the big screen was unveiled at Disney’s Investor Day. For the filmmaker, whose father, fighter pilot William T. Jenkins died at the age of only 31, this will definitely be a personal journey.

Jenkins is currently working on the treatment, but she has already talked to Pine about the story, the actor reveals:
“I talked to her about the story. She told me about it. It sounds really, really great. And I’m happy for her and so excited about what she’s going to get into. If there is anyone who can reinvent it and coax something new out of it, then it is them. “
So could it be that she talked to her “Wonder Woman” star about her “Star Wars” project because she wanted to win him over? Pine did not comment on this, but it would definitely be conceivable. After all, thanks to the “Star Trek” films, he is already sci-fi tested.
