Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back gets cinema re-release and incredible new posters to mark 40th anniversary
Relive Em𝔍pire Strikes Back on the big 📖screen (then grab yourself a poster)

Yes, we’re getting old. 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back turned 40 last month. To mark the landmark💝 anniver🗹sary, it’s getting a 4K cinema re-release and some fantastic posters to adorn one of the four walls you've been busy staring at these past few months. Wallets at the ready…
In a move designed to tempt the public back into UK cinemas, Vue will be showing Empire Strikes Back once its cinemas re-open, presumably in early July. also reports that Disney is shopping around several more of its classics in a bid to build up confidence with co𒁃nsumers before the likes of Mulan and Tenet hit l💎ater that month.
To tempt audiences further, Empire Strikes Back will be the crisp 4K version, previously only available to those with a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Disney Plus subscription or physically on Blu-ray. For those who haven’t caught the 4K version of Empire Strikes Back in particular, it’s immediately noticeable that the colours are far more naturalistic and less smudged, while the overall image quality is cleaner and clearer than it’s ever been in the four decades prior. Arguably, it’s the𓃲 definitive 𓆉way to watch, whisper it, the best Star Wars film.
The posters by Matt Ferguson – who also designed – carry a similarly quality evolution of a classic (H/T ). In this case, the OG posters are gone, in their place these 40th-anniversary posters which feature Dart🍰h Vader looming large and flanked by the Empire’s advanced weaponry.
