Fun Facts

Despite being one of the most iconic villains, Darth Vader only appears on screen for about 12 minutes in A New Hope.

The original lightsaber sound was created using a mix of projector motors and TV static.

Yoda’s original design was based on Albert Einstein’s facial features.

The phrase “I have a bad feeling about this” appears in every Star Wars film.
