If you’re a Star Wars fan, an event in France this year could totally satisfy you. We tell you everything you need to know about the topic.
If you love Star Wars, you’re obviously not alone. So why not come together in a cinema for a shared passion? This is exactly what the Grand Rex offers if you come from the Paris region or have the motivation to travel from far away. In fact, the goal is to organize a marathon around the saga with all the episodes. A whole program. Of course, you have to be quick when registering so as not to miss your chance.
A crazy Star Wars marathon
The Grand Rex in Paris is preparing to host an extraordinary event for fans of the intergalactic saga: a Star Wars marathon. Although the exact date has yet to be announced, the excitement is palpable. Organizers have not yet announced the full schedule, but it is very likely that viewers will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in all three iconic trilogies and perhaps more.
Star Wars marathons are intense cinematic experiences that typically provide over 20 hours of pure entertainment. If you look at the total length of the nine main films, the total running time is around 21 hours:
- The original trilogy (A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi): approximately 6 hours and 35 minutes.
- The prequel trilogy (The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, Revenge of the Sith): approximately 7 hours and 13 minutes.
- The sequel trilogy (The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, The Rise of Skywalker): approximately 7 hours and 17 minutes.
Add to that possible screenings of supporting films like “Rogue One” and other surprises, and the marathon could certainly fill the announced 24 hours.
The Grand Rex promises not only complete immersion in the Star Wars saga, but also entertainment and surprises for fans. While the final marathon details are awaited, fans can already prepare for an unprecedented cinematic adventure. According to initial information, everything could take place on May 1st. But nothing is certain yet. What is certain, however, is that you have to hurry, as these types of events are often stormed. The price also remains to be known.
