Have Rocket, Will Travel was the first starring feature film with The Three Stooges.

Have Rocket, Will Travel was the first starring feature film with The Three Stooges. By this time, the trio consisted of Moe Howard, Larry Fine, and Joe DeRita (dubbed "Curly Joe"). Released by Columbia Pictures, the feature was produced to capitalize on the comedy trio's 1959 resurgence in popularity. The title is a parody of the then popular television show Have Gun, Will Travel.

I don't understand the use of "starring" above. Could you please help me with this? Thanks.

I think it just means this was the first time "The Three Stooges" were promoted as having "name recognition."
Eg., "Starring The Three Stooges!"
