Will Disney ever remake the Star Wars OT eventually?

Now that Disney own the Lucasverse, will the original Star Wars trilogy ever get a full remake? It may take 20 to 30 years, but I wouldn't be very surprised at all if it happened.

However, that doesn't mean that I want it to happen in my lifetime.

On an infinite time scale I assume so. Say 20-30 years (depending on how well the franchise goes, of course) they may even do a full reboot.

I wonder if they would remake the PT or OT first.

Well they kinda just remade ANH.....

BruceSkywalker
I would not be at al surprised

Pretty much.

I don't think so. Not for a LONG time anyway.

Maybe when the CGI tech is so good that you can have the original actors, in their prime.

I hope not. The new movie was strikingly resembling of ANH as someone mentioned above. Their are so many avenues of EU to explore I don't see why they'd want to.

Astner
It would be better if they remade the prequel trilogy, preferably with little to no relations to the one George Lucas made.

Remaking anything is a bad idea. Go forward not backward. That along with rots being the best Star Wars film to date.

I hope not.

Time-Immemorial
Hell no they better not.

thumb up

Don't mess with the classics.

Hm... I can't see why they would. PT remakes are more likely than OT remakes...

Nah. Because if they remade the PT it would revamp a lot of the current established Canon, so they'd just end up remaking the whole thing.

I'm just glad the prequels were so bad Lucas gave up the rights to Star Wars. What we have going forward is better because of it.

The Prequels were 10 years ago. So I doubt Lucas selling the rights 3 years ago, really had anything to do with them. He was done with Star Wars either way. Him selling it was simply his final gift to the fans.


And again for all the talk of "How bad the Prequels" apparently were, they've clearly not damaged the franchise 1 bit looking at the OW of TFA being the biggest opening in history.

So yeah, not even a Tiny little bit.

Lucas admitted the main reason he was finished on Star Wars is due to all the criticism that the prequels brought him. He wanted to do more creative things (Jar Jar Binks) and was ridiculed for it. So he sold the rights. I'll trade Jar Jar for BB-8 anyday.

I hope not.

Me too.

And I still waiting for those small, independent art films he was so adamant about making. And here we are... 11 years later.

Sorry, George... I don't get it.

He's too busy counting his Billions.

They'll probably re-make them, with some unapologetic Mary-Sue as the lead.

Oh wait...

There's Mary-Sue again. Max Landis sure made his mark on movie history.

I think they should remake the OT but make it as modern and politically correct as possible. The OT is outdated and racist. Also, have the Wu-tang clan do the score.

BruceSkywalker
well it could happen now since its been revealed that Star Wars movies won't be going away

Not sure if serious.

Don't meddle with movie history. Lucas did enough of that already.
