"I grew up the daughter of a great fighter pilot and every day I would wake up and go outside and look up at my father and his squadron take off in their F4's roaring across the sky," Jenkins begins.

Jenkins continues: "So when he lost his life in service to this country, it ignited a desire in me to turn all of that tragedy and thrill into one day making the greatest fighter pilot movie of all time. I couldn't find the right story ever...I just couldn't find the right one until now. Now I found a movie about two things I love so I'm going to see you very soon."

"oh YES! cannot wait for this @PattyJenks," replied actor Elijah Wood, who voiced the character Jace Rucklin as a guest role in the 2018 animated series "Star Wars Resistance."

Josh Gad reacted, "This is so beyond exciting. I need this now."
