40 years ago, a very unsuspecting world was treated to the release ofStar Wars, orStar Wars: A New Hopeas it is known now, and the world would never be the same. Disney and Lucasfilm clearly have some exciting things planned in honor of the major occasion, but we just don’t know specifically what any of those things are yet. We won’t have to wait very long to find out though because a majorStar Wars40th anniversary related announcement is coming tomorrow morning.
The announcement will be made onGood Morning Americatomorrow, soStar Warsfans will definitely want to include that in their plans. Maybe call in late to work if you need to. The Good Morning AmericaTwitteraccount released a brief video teasing the announcement, which declares that bothDaisy RidleyandMark Hamillwill be on hand to deliver said announcement. Here is what the video tells us about the forthcomingStar Wars reveal.
“On GMA, Star Wars celebrates its 40th anniversary and we’ve got an announcement that you won’t wanna miss. Because when you hear it, you’ll want to be part of this force. Tomorrow,Luke Skywalkerand Rey together with the Star Wars announcement 40 years in the making.”
As anyStar Warsfan knows,Star Wars: The Last Jediis on the way later this year, so there are many that are probably hoping this will be a teaser, or something of that sort, for the highly-anticipated sequel toStar Wars: The Force Awakens. That seems unlikely because it is all but assured that the first trailer forStar Wars 8will be debuting later this week atStar WarsCelebration in Orlando. But never say never.
It is appropriate that this mysteryStar Warsannouncement will be made by bothMark HamillandDaisy Ridley, since Luke was the protagonist of the original trilogy and Rey is the Force user of interest in this new trilogy. The only real clue we have as to what this might be has to do with the announcement video saying that this is something “you’ll want to be a part of.” That seems to imply that maybe this will be some sort of event or activity thatStar Warsfans will be able to actually participate in. Lucky for us, we only have to speculate until tomorrow morning.
Outside of this announcement, there is also a massive 40th anniversary panel planned atStar WarsCelebration, which will be kicking off the event this Thursday. There are also some “not-to-be-missed surprises” being teased at that event. So it looks like, outside of the surely comingStar Wars: The Last Jedinews, fans will be getting a lot of coolStar Warsannouncements having to do with the four-decade-long existence of agalaxy far, far away. Be sure to tune intoGood Morning Americatomorrow morning to see this mysteryStar Warsannouncement. you may check out the teaser for the announcement for yourself below.
