A remastered 4K edition of “The Empire Strikes Back” will help usher in the re-opening of cinemas in the UK via European cinema giant Vue.
The planned screenings mark the first time a “Star Wars” film from the original trilogy will be screened to cinema audiences in 4K, and the first time outside of both UHD Blu-ray and Disney+ the film has been made available in that format.
Vue is believed to be eyeing an early July restart across most of its U.K. cinemas. The country’s cinemas are among the last businesses to open as part of the government’s economic recovery plan.
Christopher Nolan’s “Inception” will also be on offer.
