To be clear, Lucasfilm has confirmed that will be the OG cut of A New Hope as it was shown in 1977, and not the Special Edition that George Lucas released in 1997 that has since been the film's preferred version of exhibition. The 1997 version included CGI tinkering and the inclusion of the Greedo shot first at Han scene, among other changes.

Disney is bringing a "newly restored version" of the original, 1977 theatrical cut of Star Wars back to theaters on February 19th, 2027. It will only be available in theaters for "a limited time," Disney says, and it's being released as part of "Lucasfilm's yearlong 50th anniversary celebration" for the franchise. Tickets aren't on sale yet, but Disney says it will share details on when and where to buy tickets on StarWars.com.

This isn't just another brand slapping a logo on a hoodie and calling it a collaboration. Columbia has been partnering with Star Wars since 2016, releasing annual holiday collections that go deep into the details. But this 20-piece Endor Collection takes things to another level entirely. The designers actually visited Skywalker Ranch to see the original spray-painted camo costumes from Return of the Jedi in person. That hands-on research shows in every piece.

It's been nearly two years since Disney surprised Star Wars and Marvel fans by bringing The Mandalorian, Loki, and other marquee original series to 4K Blu-ray. The vast majority of Disney+ content remains exclusive to the streaming platform, but all three seasons of The Mandalorian, both seasons of Loki, the complete story arcs of WandaVision and Obi-Wan Kenobi, and more have physical Collector's Editions with steelbook cases, three art cards, and on-disc bonus features.

Following the premiere of Johnson's latest film, Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, audience members were shocked to find Abrams moderating a Q&A with Johnson and Daniel Craig about the film. Had the moment arrived? Were Star Wars fans finally about to hear the director talk about what happened behind the scenes? Well, not exactly.

"unfinished business,"

Of course, development of Star Wars: Eclipse continues, and we are eager to share more with you in the future,

A long time ago, in a retail store not that far away, there sat an Airfix model of the Star Wars Imperial Star Destroyer. And I wanted it. Back then, I was a Star Wars devotee long before it became the global pop-culture monolith it is today. I was also a keen model maker - mostly assembling the very earliest White Dwarf and Warhammer kits. But the Airfix Star Destroyer - that was the dream kit. The Holy Grail.

After the Disney acquisition of Lucasfilm, none of the previous Star Wars books would be considered canon, and instead would be relegated to the status of "Legends." Like Palpatine dissolving the senate offscreen, the Expanded Universe or "EU" of Star Wars was suddenly obliterated. But, then again, George Lucas never fully considered the EU to be true canon. Rather, he let the writers of those pre-2014 books and comics take all sorts of liberties.

Darth Vader's lightsaber is about to become someone's prized possession. It's up for auction alongside a bunch of other iconic movie props, as spotted earlier by The New York Times. The auction is hosted by the memorabilia company Propstore, and it estimates that Vader's lightsaber will fetch anywhere from $1 million to $3 million. Darth Vader had this weapon in hand in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Return of the Jedi (1983).
