Star Wars: The Return of The Jedi 40th Anniversary Special Edition

Product Information

Fans were treated to several major announcements throughout the weekend, with many of the biggest reveals coming straight from Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy during the Lucasfilm Studio Showcase. Here are a few of the highlights.

Spider-Man, X-Men, Avengers, and all of Marvel's April 2023 comics and covers revealed on Newsarama (archived from the original on January 19, 2023) There were also plenty of announcements about animated shows in the works for Disney+. Dave Filoni announced that “Tales of the Jedi” is getting a second season. The third and final season of “The Bad Batch” will air in 2024. Return of the Jedi is generally seen as the low point of the trilogy, but it certainly has its moments, with the entire Jabba's palace opening sequence and Luke's final confrontation with his father and the Emperor standing out as highlights of the entire saga. In honor of the 40th-anniversary theatrical return, artist Matt Ferguson created a new commemorative poster, focused on Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader. The Emperor has been expecting you. Embrace the power of the Empire with the new Return of the Jedi Empire Stud set from Girls Crew. Complete your descent to the dark side with the new Halo Death Star Waffle Maker or the Darth Vader Helmet crossbody bag with the matching 3D keychain from Loungefly.

In addition to the 40th-anniversary panel, as mentioned earlier, it’s also been confirmed that Rosario Dawson, who plays the live-action incarnation of Ahsoka Tano, will be signing autographs and taking pictures with fans as well. Price tags for both are available in the link above. Her appearance there doesn’t come particularly as a surprise, as she’s expected to attend the yet-to-be-announced major panel focused on the upcoming Ahsoka live-action series. In fact, the actress is available for photo-ops and pictures on Sunday and Monday, which already tells us that we should expect that panel to happen either on Friday or Saturday. If the Return of the Jedi panel is indeed on Friday, we could see Ahsoka take the stage on Saturday — it could also be part of a larger panel akin to what Lucasfilm did last year in Anaheim, where they discussed every upcoming live-action project in a 90-minute Thursday panel.
