this exciting news with a mysterious teaser trailer.

and choose between fighting for the light
or falling to the dark side.
Now Lucasfilm, Aspire and Sony interactive entertainment
have joined forces for the remake.
Headed to PlayStation 5 consoles and PC

Republic in its heyday.

I have failed you, Anakin!
I have failed you.
I should have known the Jedi were plotting to take over.
Anakin, Chancellor Palpatine is evil.
From my point of view, the Jedi are evil.
Well, then you are lost.
And scene.
Why am I reliving this heartbreaking moment, you ask?
Well way back on September 17, 2003,
principal photography wrapped on "Star Wars: Revenge
of the Sith," The film that showed fans the fall of Anakin
Skywalker, the rise of the Sith and of course the birth
of Darth Vader.
- No!
- Exactly.
This film is an adult now, and I still can't
talk about the Padme funeral.
No.
No, I'll be crying for the rest of the day.
