Return of the Jedi is being re-released in celebration of the films 40th anniversary.
Star Wars Celebration provided some major announcements for Star Wars fans, including new movies, new character interactions in Disney parks, and upcoming Disney+ Star Wars series. The festival also produced an announcement about one of the movies from the original trilogy: Star Wars: Return of the Jedi is coming back to theaters in celebration of its 40th anniversary.

Starwars.com cites the upcoming re-release as the first Return of the Jedi official release in 26 years. The film will be available in select theaters in the United States, the United Kingdom, and other regions.
The announcement was accompanied by a new poster created by artist Matt Ferguson, who created a poster for the anniversary re-release of The Empire Strikes Back in 2020. “The artwork should tell a story, so for me it only made sense to give over the composition to those two characters,” Ferguson stated. “Will Luke be turned? Is Vader going to overcome the darkness? It’s all about the pull between good and evil.”
Screenings are slated to take place in the U.S. between April 28-May 4 and in the U.K. between April 28-May 1, 2023. No word yet on when tickets will go on sale.
