Lucasfilm revealed today that, in honor of the movie’s 20th anniversary, Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith will be back on the big screen on April 25. For just one week, the movie will be shown in theaters across the United States and a few other countries. It will be accessible in several formats, including 4DX for the first time.
Revenge of the Sith takes place years after the onset of the Clone Wars when the noble Jedi Knights lead a massive clone army into a galaxy-wide battle against the Separatists. When the sinister Sith unveils a thousand-year-old plot to rule the galaxy, the Republic crumbles, and from its ashes rises the evil Galactic Empire. Jedi Hero Anakin Skywalker is seduced by the dark side of the Force to become the Emperor’s new apprentice — Darth Vader. The Jedi are decimated, as Obi-Wan Kenobi and Jedi Master Yoda are forced into hiding.
The film stars Ewan McGregor, Natalie Portman, Hayden Christensen, Ian McDiarmid, Disney Legend Frank Oz as Yoda, Jimmy Smits, Peter Mayhew, Ahmed Best, Oliver Ford Davies, Temuera Morrison, Anthony Daniels, Silas Carson, Kenny Baker, with Samuel L. Jackson as Mace Windu and Christopher Lee as Count Dooku. Disney Legend George Lucas wrote and directed the film.
