A newly restored model of the unique 1977 lower of Star Wars: A New Hope can be launched in theaters on February nineteenth, 2027 in celebration of its fiftieth anniversary.
To be clear, Lucasfilm has confirmed that would be the OG lower of A New Hope because it was proven in 1977, and never the Particular Version that George Lucas launched in 1997 that has since been the movie’s most popular model of exhibition. The 1997 model included CGI tinkering and the inclusion of the Greedo shot first at Han scene, among other changes.
In 2004, Lucas clarified that the 1997 Particular Version was his true imaginative and prescient for the movie. “The Particular Version, that’s the one I wished on the market,” stated Lucas to The Related Press. “The opposite film, it’s on VHS, if anyone desires it.”
“It’s like that is the film I wished it to be, and I’m sorry you noticed a half-completed movie and fell in love with it,” Lucas added. However I need it to be the way in which I need it to be. I’m the one who has to take duty for it. I’m the one who has to have everyone throw rocks at me on a regular basis, so not less than in the event that they’re going to throw rocks at me, they’re going to throw rocks at me for one thing I like reasonably than one thing I feel just isn’t superb, or not less than one thing I feel just isn’t completed.”
