Star Wars: Episode 4 - A New Hope (The Original Trailer)

The fourth Episode of the Star Wars Saga, but this historically is where Star Wars originally began in the Movie Theatres.

The Movie was a colossal success, becoming one of the most successful and influential films of all time. Below is the original trailer.



Episode 4 - A New Hope is set 19 years after the events of Episode 3 - Revenge of the Sith and sees the start of the Rebellion against the Empire. The Empire have just completed construction of their dreaded Death Star and plan to wipe out the Rebellion before it can grow any further.

Most notably this is where the smuggler Han Solo and his ship, the Millennium Falcon enter the Star Wars Universe.

With a budget of a comparatively low $11 Million, Star Wars A New Hope went on to gross over $775 Million at Movie Theatres.

Later in the 1990's George Lucas was to re-release the Movie with new digital effects and added scenes that had been originally cut.
