The Last Starfighter

Fast forward 50 years and the earth is part of the Ko-Dan empire and the people of earth are oppressed. Main character is Alex Rogan, named after her grandfather who fought the Ko-Dan as a teen. Alex is an outcast because everyone believes her grandfather betrayed humanity through some convenient plot device, but she's convinced he didn't.

Through something that belonged to him she discovers a hidden cave containing a copy of the original game Starfighter.

Thinking it's a game she plays, and is really good at it (she of course inherited the gift). Upon defeating the game a vast cavern is revealed containing the ancient Gunstar.

Living in the Gunstar is a damaged AI that was installed after the events of the movie. As the AI repairs itself with the help of Alex it helps Alex and her friends train as pilots.

Maybe make them discover a human resistance hiding that has been building weapons and ships to resist but hasn't been able to find anyone with The Gift and haven't been able to build a Gunstar. When she finds them they try and take the Gunstar from her, but she somehow shows that only her with The Gift can defeat the enemy effectively. Eventually they accept her and they build other ships based on the Gunstar that are more effective, but Alex and the Gunstar are the main fighters.

Then maybe have them discover more Gunstars and then there's more pilots. Lots of teen drama and character growth etc.

End of season 1 is the first win against the empire in a battle.

End of season 2 is humanity losing the war but Alex escaping the solar system to track down a signal that might indicate another planet that can help
