Potentially interesting words from the man behind the (currently) all pixel character of Cal Kestis, star of Jedi Fallen Order and the forthcoming Survivor. Speaking with Screen Rant, Cameron Monaghan was asked whether there was interest in bringing the character from the computer screen to the big screen, and this was all he had to say.

“Well of course there’s interest. That’s about all I can say. [Laughs]”

Few words, and a lot could be read into that when you consider the direct nature of the question and NDA’s covering either positive or negative answer, but – and we reside in the Star Wars galaxy, where even directly negative replies yield positive results (here’s looking at you Liam Neeson) this could potentially point towards a live action destiny for the character, portrayed as he is by a busy actor currently promoting indie thriller Paradise Highway.
