Perhaps not. I hope you're right.  But this also would have been before the Disney purchase was finalized if that staffers resume is accurate.  I have a hard time believing Lucasfilm would have been working on an OUT restoration at that time, while GL was technically still running the show.

Perhaps as a show of good faith to Disney, LFL started having it restored?

The Disney deal didn't happen overnight. It'd been in the works for months when it was announced, so this is entirely possible.

Anyway, I just watched the demo reel and the OT footage in there looks amazing! Very film-like. Even if this is just the SE, something I have no intention of supporting, it would still be nice if they're bringing it up to modern standards.

ETA: There's no footage from Jedi in that reel. Maybe it's that new of a project?
