"Return of the Jedi - 40th Anniversary Poster"

"Return of the Jedi Anniversary Poster" celebrates the 40th anniversary of the iconic film that marked the end of the original Star Wars trilogy. The poster features characters such as Jabba the Hutt, speeder bikes, The Emperor, and Ewoks. With the full theatrical presentation of the film, fans can enjoy the saga's beloved sixth chapter for the first time in 26 years.



Matt Ferguson, the artist behind the poster, wanted to focus on the triumph of Luke and the Rebels, showcasing warmer colors such as green with red accents. The composition centers on two of the saga's most resonant and consequential figures, Luke and Vader, highlighting the pull between good and evil. The poster commemorating the film's return has been created to celebrate the 40th anniversary of this iconic film. 

Limited screenings of Return of the Jedi will be held in select theaters in the US, UK, and other regions from April 28.
