Get ready to fly alongside the Millennium Falcon! Disney, Lucasfilm and Cosm announced today that Star Wars: A New Hope is coming to Cosm’s immersive Shared Reality domes in March 2027 to celebrate the film’s 50th anniversary.
What Is Star Wars: A New Hope in Shared Reality?
Cosm venues feature a massive 12K plus LED dome that wraps around the audience. For this experience, Star Wars: A New Hope will play in its original widescreen format in the center of the dome, while the screen around it transforms into iconic Star Wars locations and moments as the story unfolds.
During the movie, guests will:
- Land on the desert planet of Tatooine
- Witness the destruction of Alderaan
- Meet the Rebel Alliance on the fourth moon of Yavin
- Step inside the Death Star
- Fly alongside the Millennium Falcon during the final trench run
The experience was developed with Disney, Lucasfilm, Industrial Light and Magic and MakeMake, and it uses the 2019 version of the Academy Award winning film.
“The Star Wars franchise blazed the trail for cinematic fandom and has been the north star of the entertainment industry since the original film debuted in 1977,” said Alexis Scalice, VP and Head of Cosm Studios. “We’re privileged to work alongside our incredible partners to develop an experience that celebrates the film’s legacy and provides fans across generations an opportunity to step inside the beloved Star Wars galaxy like never before.”
Where and When Can You See It?
- Premiere: March 2027
- Locations: Cosm in Atlanta, Dallas, Detroit and Los Angeles
- Tickets: On sale in 2027. Fans can sign up for Cosm’s newsletter at Cosm.com for updates.
As part of the Star Wars 50th anniversary celebration, each screening will also come with special themed menus and an exclusive poster by Studio Number One.
More Disney Movies Are Coming to Cosm
This is just the beginning. The announcement is part of a new multi-year, multi-film partnership between Disney and Cosm, which means more titles from Disney’s library of films and franchises are headed to the dome. A New Hope will be Cosm’s sixth Shared Reality movie experience.
