Hope you have your lightsaber ready, as fans can rejoice with Lucasfilm announcing Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith returning to theatres to celebrate its 20th anniversary.
Lucasfilm has announced that the third episode, Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith, will return to the big screen on April 25 to celebrate its 20th anniversary. To enhance the experience for both nostalgic and new fans, theatres will utilize 4DX — a high-tech motion chair system that syncs with over 21 effects, allowing fans to be more immersed in the film.
With how exciting this news could be for many Star Wars fans, renowned graphic artist Matt Ferguson designed a new poster for the re-release event. The poster features Darth Vader’s helmet, Anakin Skywalker donning a dark robe as he leans into the dark side, and the fan-favourite duel between Anakin and Obi-Wan Kenobi at the bottom of the poster.
Marking the third episode in the prequels, Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith is set years after the Clone Wars, when a massive clone army led by a noble Jedi Knight battles against the Separatists. When the Sith reveals his thousand-year-old plan to rule the galaxy, the Republic falls apart, and the Galactic Empire rises from the ashes, tempting Anakin Skywalker to join the dark side of the Force. Soon, Anakin becomes Darth Vader, the apprentice to the Emperor, and with the Jedi destroyed, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Master Yoda have no choice but to go into hiding.
Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith stars Hayden Christensen as Anakin Skywalker, Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan Kenobi, Natalie Portman as Padmé Amidala, Frank Oz as Yoda, Ian McDiarmid as Sheev Palpatine, Christopher Lee as Count Dooku and many more.
As fans rejoice in the return of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith, Disney has announced that Andor will release its second season on April 22, 2025, on Disney+. The second season will follow Cassian Andor as he becomes a revolutionary volunteer and a key player in the Rebel Alliance, with a war on the brink of starting. Everyone’s loyalties will be tested as conflicts, sacrifices and betrayals arise.
For fans excited about the re-release of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith, the film will premiere in theatres on April 25, 2025.
