Natalie Portman and Liam Neeson in Star Wars: The Phantom Menace
The Big Picture The first canonical entry in the Skywalker Saga timeline is making waves at the box office more than 20 years after its initial release. In honor of the film's 25th anniversary, which also coincides with May the 4th, Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace re-released in theaters and opened to an impressive $2.3 million domestically.
What Are the Highest Grossing Movie Re-Releases of All-Time? Close Box office re-releases can be hit or miss, but there have been some films over the years that found more success in later theatrical runs. A classic example of this is The Wizard of Oz, which first released in 1993 and failed to make a profit.
To celebrate the 25th anniversary, Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace is back in theaters for a limited time only.
