Original 1977 'Star Wars' Theatrical Cut Returning to Theaters on Feb. 19, 2027

Lucasfilm confirms a newly restored, unaltered print for a limited theatrical run, with ticketing and format details to follow.

Overview

  • StarWars.com lists February 19, 2027 for the big‑screen return as part of Lucasfilm’s 50th‑anniversary celebrations.
  • The studio specifies it is the original 1977 theatrical release newly restored, not the later Special Edition versions.
  • The engagement will be limited in theaters, and Lucasfilm will announce when and where to buy tickets closer to the date.
  • Some outlets report a February 17 opening and suggest possible IMAX showings, but Lucasfilm has not confirmed those details.
  • The date was moved up from April 30, 2027, providing breathing room before Shawn Levy’s Starfighter movie on May 28, 2027.
