From A New Hope to Episode I
or Sir Alec Guiness to Ewan McGregor


Leavesden Studios

Originally built as a Rolls-Royce jet engine factory complete with its own landing strip, Leavesden Studios is an immense complex with well over half a million square feet of space, making it the largest indoor studio in Europe. Its 100 acres of open space for outdoor filming give it the largest studio backlot in the world. The Star Wars crew is taking full advantage of the facility and is constantly building.

Other worlds are under construction and in front of the cameras even now at Leavesden Studios. The crew has returned from the elaborate location shoot in Tunisia, where the production's story is an adventure in its own right.
