Wasn’t there a short lived Starman TV series that acted as sort of a sequel? I believe it starred Robert Hays (Airplane).

I think you are probably right. I think I saw the series before I saw the movie. lol

You are correct, sir.

There was a made-for-TV sci-fi/drama movie called, “Starcrossed” with James Spader and Belinda Bauer made in 1985 (a year after Star Man).
