Adam Driver fans are on top of the world right now following the news that he will star as Mister Sinister in Marvel’s new X-Men movie, which is coming to theaters in 2028. Driver has a well-established relationship with properties under the Disney umbrella — he starred as Kylo Ren in a trilogy of Star Wars sequel movies, and there were even whispers that he would come back and star in a new film under director Steven Soderbergh, The Hunt for Ben Solo. While Disney has yet to come out and say the film is officially dead, the studio does keep using the term “back burner” to refer to the current development state of The Hunt for Ben Solo, which is never a good sign. With as many projects as Driver has coming in the next year or two, though, he certainly isn’t stressing over it.

Adam Driver has been tapped to star in one of the lead roles in Chris Rock’s new movie, Misty Green, which is coming to select theaters in October. In addition to starring in the film, Rock also wrote and directed Misty Green, and this will be his first directorial feature in over 10 years since he last directed Top Five in 2014. Rock has enlisted other big stars like Rosalind Eleazar, Anna Kendrick, and even Daniel Kaluuya to star in his new comedic drama. This is especially big news for Daniel Kaluuya, who has not starred in a movie since 2023’s Across the Spider-Verse. Even that was an animated film, though — it’s been since 2022’s Nope that Kaluuya featured in a live-action role, so Rock clearly has something special to get him to come out of the woodwork.

Docking Clamps Released Your Crew Is…

Four ships, four completely different reasons to be up there at all. Here is the one that has your seat, what flying with them would cost you, and what it would give back.

Millennium Falcon

You belong on the fastest piece of junk in the galaxy, with a crew that took the job for the payday and then quietly stopped caring about the payday. Nothing on the Falcon has ever gone according to plan, and everybody aboard prefers it that way.

  • You improvise better than you prepare, which is why you keep ending up in situations that a careful person would have avoided.
  • The Falcon is the only ship on this list that is genuinely funny, and half of that comes from it breaking at the worst possible moment.
  • You would pretend the whole thing is transactional right up until somebody you like is in trouble, and then the pretending stops instantly.
  • This crew is the reason the rebellion had a chance at all, and not one of them would ever admit to that out loud.

The Ghost

You belong with the crew that turned a tiny cell of misfits into an actual rebellion. The Ghost is a home before it is a ship, and everybody who boards it arrived with something broken that the rest of them decided to look after.

  • Found family is the whole engine here, and Rebels earns it by making you watch these people choose each other over and over again.
  • You are in it for the cause, but what actually keeps you going is the four people who would notice immediately if you stopped showing up.
  • Hera is one of the best captains in the franchise, and the show is smart enough to make her competence the quiet centre of everything.
  • This crew pays for its wins, which is exactly what makes the wins land the way they do.

The Skeleton Crew

You belong with the four kids who found a buried ship, launched it by accident and are now extremely lost in a galaxy that eats people like them. Nobody here knows what they are doing, and that turns out to be the fun of it.

  • Your instinct is to open the door that says do not open, and you would do it again tomorrow.
  • Skeleton Crew is the closest Star Wars has come to an eighties adventure movie, where the stakes are real but the wonder never gets sanded off.
  • You make friends out of whoever is standing next to you when things go wrong, which is a genuinely useful survival skill.
  • The pirates in this one are properly frightening, and that is precisely why the kids being out of their depth works so well.

The Razor Crest

You belong in the quietest ship in the galaxy, with one small passenger and a code you have never explained to anybody. You told yourself this was a job, and then it stopped being a job somewhere around the second week.

  • You work alone by preference and by habit, which lasts exactly as long as it takes for somebody small to need looking after.
  • The Mandalorian works because almost nothing gets said out loud, and the armour does the acting that a face usually would.
  • Your loyalty is narrow and absolute, so there are very few people on your list and nothing will move you off it.
  • The Mandalorian and Grogu took all of that to the big screen over Memorial Day 2026, the first Star Wars film in seven years.

What Is ‘Misty Green’ About?

Misty Green follows a talented actress who fights for life in the second half of her career now that she’s years removed from her big Hollywood breakthrough. Misty Green has already premiered for select critics, and the film holds a solid 69% on the aggregate site Rotten Tomatoes. This also comes from 26 reviews, so while it is subject to change, it’s a large enough sample size that it likely won’t shift too far in either direction. Topher Grace, famed for his role as Eddie Brock in Spider-Man 3, will also star in a key role in Misty Green.

Check out the new trailer for Misty Green and stay tuned to Collider for more updates and coverage of the film.
