AN 'EMPIRE' AT 40: THAT 'OTHER' FAB FOUR!

Our heroes poses for a terrific cast photo on the then newly inaugurated Star Wars Stage at Elstree Studios, June 1979.

From May 25th, 1977, a new group of hero icons would quickly and deservedly be added to the rosta of cinematic and pop culture history. Heroes from 'A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...' And by 1979, Han Solo, Princess Leia Organa, Luke Skywalker and faithful wookiee Chewbacca, as played by Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill and Peter Mayhew, would return for an all-new sequel, coming May 1980, with lots of building story/action expectations from fans with the production's clearly ambitious and expensive wake, and with an all-new set of behind the scenes problems having to be sorted out in order to make an Empire truly strike back...

HAPPY 40TH ANNIVERSARY TO 'THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK'!
