The entire Star Wars Skywalker Saga is making its return to movie theaters again in celebration of the franchise's anniversary month.

For almost 50 years, the Star Wars franchise has become beloved and endured many generations of fans thanks to the iconic characters and timeless stories that they told through films, TV shows, video games, novels, and comic books.

This year also marks the 25th anniversary of The Phantom Menace, the film that started the prequel trilogy and reintroduced the franchise to a new generation of fans.

Lucasfilm announced that the entire Skywalker Saga is making its return to movie theaters this May 4 (aka May the 4th Day for Star Wars fans).

All nine films (The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, Revenge of the Sith, A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi, The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, The Rise of Skywalker) will be shown in chronological order.

In addition, fans will also get an exclusive look at the upcoming series The Acolyte, which recently released its first trailer, during The Phantom Menace screening and receive a special limited edition poster.

Tickets will go on sale today for those who are interested in attending the Skywalker Saga marathon.

This is exciting news for fans since they will be able to relieve the entire Skywalker Saga again on the big screen and see the films the way they were always meant to be seen.

The addition of a sneak peek of The Acolyte made it a great incentive for fans since it is expected to be footage that will only be exclusively available for the attendees.
