Oscar-Winner Mikey Madison Turns Down Role in Ryan Gosling-Led 'Star Wars' Movie
As everyone wonders how Mikey Madison will follow up her Oscar-winning performance in Anora, it seems she won't be heading to a galaxy far, far away as she has now reportedly passed on the upcoming Star Warsentry starring Ryan Gosling. After appearing in critically acclaimed titles like Better Things, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, and 2022's Scream, Mikey Madison's role in Anora earned her critical acclaim and an Academy Award for Best Actress, beating out stars like Demi Moore in The Substance and Cynthia Erivo in Wicked. At just 26 years old, Madison is likely at the top of every studio's short list for their major films, and she now has the clout to decide what she does and doesn't want to do.
Variety reports that Madison was offered a lead role in the upcoming Star Wars film directed by Deadpool & Wolverine filmmaker Shawn Levy and starring Academy Award-nominee Ryan Gosling.
