Star Wars is magic. We don’t mean just on-screen, although the galaxy far, far away is certainly a mystical place. But the filmmakers who have told the stories of Star Wars for the last four decades make just as much magic in the real world bringing their visions to life.

Star Wars has been changing moviemaking since 1977 and it shows no signs of ever stopping. Thanks to Disney+, you can get an up-close look at the sets, visual effects, technology, and so much more any time you want.

Take a trip back in time to the 1990s when the original trilogy was re-released in theaters! In this in-depth look at the making of the Special Edition of the Star Wars: A New Hope, the fans’ excitement at seeing the movies on the big screen is contagious.
