I mean, we obviously know these scans are real. Lucasfilm is obviously scanning and re-mastering all of the original film.

It’s even been confirmed by Bill Hunt at The Digital Bits with his sources at Lucasfilm.

What they’re going to do with the re-masters, we don’t know yet. But a 2027 theatrical and home media release seems likely.

Wouldn’t make much sense to do a re-master like this and do nothing with it.

Oh really? do tell.

And, let’s be real: Bill isn’t what he used to be, even if he did say that (which, spoiler alert, he didn’t).
