Recently director Gary Whitta shared some concept art from a new project based on the 80s cult classic The Last Starfighter. "Okay, probably shouldn’t show you this so early but here’s a little something I’ve been tinkering on with my co-writer Jonathan Betuel," he said on Twitter. "You might recognize the ships. Thanks to the amazing Matt Allsopp (lead concept artist on ROGUE ONE) for creating these images for us."

Matt Allsop is a professional concept artist who's worked on Hollywood movies like Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and Godzilla (2014).

The Gunstar is a space fighter used by the fleet. Whitta describes these as "Gunstar II (blue and gold squadron variants). A streamlined upgrade of the original Grig/Rogan prototype, it has superior speed, maneuverability, armament, and next-generation Death Blossom".

Here's what it looked like in the original film.

Here are some more designs of various scenes from the film.

Whitta has been close-lipped about what it will be about but promises it's a "fully developed story that is a combination of reboot and sequel that we both think honors the legacy of the original film while passing the torch to a new generation".
