Rebel Pilot and 9-year-old Anakin Skywalker
With 9-year-old Anakin Skywalker, we face adventure ahead in Episode I - and the discovery of a story's origins. The family home, high-performance spacecraft, and exotic city streets all return to the screen to build a new journey in the first episode of the new Star Wars movie trilogy.
The first phase of production on Episode I has wrapped at Leavesden Studios, and the action now returns to America, with work on editing and post-production visual effects shifting into high gear.
