Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith is returning to theaters to celebrate its 20th Anniversary, and what better way to honor this epic moment than with some breathtaking new poster art by Matt Ferguson!
Look out, Force fans, because Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith is returning to cinemas this April to celebrate the film’s 20th Anniversary. George Lucas’s glorious finale to the prequel trilogy is returning to the big screen on 25th April, and to commemorate the release, Lucasfilm has shared the glorious poster art designed by the legendary artist Matt Ferguson.
Like his work on the previous saga releases, Matt’s sensational artwork showcases the fall of Anakin Skywalker and the rise of the Empire. The chosen one is depicted on Mustafar, as the mask of Darth Vader looms over him like a shroud. But don’t take my word for it. Scroll down and check it out.
THE DARK SIDE COMETH
To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the premiere of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith, the final film in the prequel trilogy, Episode III will be re-released in theaters on April 25, 2025, running in select U.S. theaters and international territories for one week only. Screenings will be available in several formats, including, for the first time, 4DX. From the exhilarating battles over the planet of Coruscant to the fiery volcanic high grounds of Mustafar, relive this pivotal chapter in the Skywalker saga; the 4DX experience features high-tech motion chairs that sync with over 21 effects, all designed to complement the narrative of the film.
Once again, renowned graphic artist Matt Ferguson created new poster art for the re-release event, his most complicated work to date. Featuring the looming mask of Darth Vader enveloping Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) on his march to execute Order 66, the sprawling piece also includes Ferguson’s artistic illustration of the life-changing lightsaber duel between Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor) and Anakin and the Coruscant skyline featuring warships over the burning Jedi Temple.
