CLASSIC IMAGE: 'IT'S TOO LATE!'

As Han Solo generates continued cover fire, knowing that the Death Star hangar bay will soon be full of Imperial troops if they don't escape soon, Princess Leia tries to snap Luke Skywalker out of his violence with the loss of Ben Kenobi, in this great rare-ish rehearsal image from the original Star Wars.

'SOLO': LUXURY EVIL!

Looking like a dagger slashing its way through space, the First Light, the luxury craft/mobile command vessel of Crimson Dawn's top lieutenant, Dryden Vos, makes its way to a further criminal enterprise, in this intriguing shot of the vessel never seen in Solo: A Star Wars Story back in 2019.

EPISODE IX: THE LAST JEDI CONFER...

The emotionally troubled Rey's uncertainty as a Jedi in the light of the recent revelations of her parentage, and of her Grandfather, sees a return to the legendary world of Ahch-To, where she is soon helped back on her path to good and light by the spirit of her former mentor, Luke Skywalker, in a nice, and most welcome, moment between the two characters during The Rise of Skywalker.

EPISODE III: WOOKIEES AT WAR!

Their lush jungle homeworld of Kashyyyk critically threatened with Separatist droid invaders, the Wookiees will protect their lands and freedoms with unique heavy weaponry, as seen in this great conceptual art by Aaron McBride for Episode III.

ILM BEHIND THE SCENES: COMEDY SHOWCASE!

Back with its first brief appearance in 1983's Return of the Jedi, cinema audiences got a good laugh watching the belly-burping, cave snuggly Rock Wart creature residing outside Jabba's Palace. It certainly made for a quirky creation too, whose comedic moment was filmed and re-developed again during ILM's Post Production period for the ambitious movie, supervised by the ever-reliable creature feature specialist, Phil Tippett.

With thanks to Chris Baker for the image.

'OBI-WAN KENOBI': PARENTAL PROTECTION!

The time that Owen and Beru Lars have dreaded for so long has finally come to realisation, as the dark forces of the Empire arrive at their homestead, ready to take the young orphan Luke Skywalker from their love and protection, during a tense moment from the Obi-Wan Kenobi mini-series final episode. 

With this kind of courage shown in the mini-series, it would be nice to think that Owen and Beru didn't go down without a fight with the later arrival of the Stormtroopers in A New Hope.

EPISODE VIII: ENEMY AT THE GATES!

The Battle of Crait has finished and there has been no real victory for any combative side, as the First Order Stormtroopers now break through into the remnants of the former Rebel base there and discover it once more abandoned, in a terrific image from The Last Jedi.
