Is this the working title for STAR WARS EPISODE III?

Ever since George Lucas announced his plans to make new STAR WARS movies, fans have speculated what the titles of EPISODE I, II and III could be. Before Lucas revealed the title for EPISODE I: THE PHANTOM MENACE, dozens of would-be candidates were mentioned -- but all were far from what the actual title turned out to be. When production began on EPISODE II, the same fury and speculation arose once again on the internet...but once again Lucas proved them all to be wrong when we learned it was to be ATTACK OF THE CLONES.

And perhaps the fans (and the online movie website community) have learned their lesson because the level of speculation as to what the title of EPISODE III will be has been far less than it has been for the previous two STAR WARS prequels. Maybe we've learned that trying to anticipate what Lucas has in store for us isn't as easy as we once thought it would be six or seven years ago.


And that is why you should take today's scoop with a heavy dose of salt. Even though the information comes from a trusted source working in the entertainment business the fact remains that, to date, no one individual or website has broken the title of any STAR WARS film in advance of the Lucasfilm announcement. In short: while we trust our source and they haven't steered us wrong in the past, we still wouldn't bet the farm on this one. If there's one thing learned reporting about the STAR WARS films it's that Uncle George's mind is about as hard to read as a Jedi performing one of their mysterious mind tricks.


Still with me? If so, here it is:


A source for Coming Attractions has informed us that the title being used for EPISODE III (and allegedly by Lucas himself) is REVENGE OF THE SITH.


Our source, whose identity and position within show business we will keep anonymous, told us where they heard this information and in what capcity the alleged title has been used. Without breaking our source's confidence and being aware to not jeopardize the jobs of any other individuals, there exists the possibility that the REVENGE OF THE SITH title may be valid. Nevertheless, it again bears repeating that, even with the high standing that we give our source, we cannot guarantee that this will be the final title used for EPISODE III. In fact, the REVENGE OF THE SITH title has even been floated out there as a fan favorite for possible SW3 titles (along with a dozen others.) The only thing that separates our rumor from any others is that we can say that there are individuals working on aspects of the production that have been told that REVENGE OF THE SITH is what the third prequel movie will be called -- but nothing is for sure until you see the movie poster itself. Who knows? George could be telling his people one thing but in fact he's going to announce STAR WARS EPISODE III: THAT'S ALL FOLKS sometime this year. Is REVENGE OF THE SITH misinformation, disinformation or the biggest inside leak yet?


Before we let speculation commence about this tantalizing and unconfirmed piece of gossip, it should be noted that the original title for EPISODE VI was in fact REVENGE OF THE JEDI. As we now know, before the movie's release in 1983 the title was changed to RETURN OF THE JEDI. Depending upon who's telling the tale, the JEDI title was changed because it was similar to another science fiction movie in production at the same time (STAR TREK II: THE WRATH OF KHAN was originally called THE VENGEANCE OF KHAN); or the other story, Lucas changed the title because he felt that Jedi don't seek a cold-blooded thing like revenge. Indeed, it sounds just like something a Sith would do.


Ultimately, time will tell if the Dark Lords will have their revenge in the title credits or not.

A theatre near me has/had a HUGE poster that says Revenge of the Jedi, It was/is in mint condition, Yeah it was hanging last time i was there which was about 4 years ago. It was HUGE, and it was awesome.

I don't like the names of the new star wars movies.

Star Wars Episode 1: Please kill Jar Jar
Star Wars Episode 2: Go Yoda, Go Yoda it's your birthday
Star Wars Episode 3: Is Jar Jar dead yet?

We can't forget about the original 3 movies

Star Wars Episode 4: Jar Jar is DEAD There is A New Hope
Star Wars Episode 5: Nothing cute and cuddly in this one
Star Wars Episode 6: Dammit Jar Jar is dead Now we got Ewoks...Damn you Lucas!!!

I hope the new star wars does the original 2 movies justice.

who gives a shit what the title is? The movie'll probably suck anyways. It could have one of the coolest titles ever, but it won't change the fact that George Lucas can't direct his way out of a fuckin paper bag.

A little extra Star Wars news for ya

More EPISODE III support
10 new actors confirmed for roles in final STAR WARS movie

The official STAR WARS website has once again updated its recast listings, confirming that three actors who appeared in ATTACK OF THE CLONES will be reprising their roles in EPISODE III.

The three returning cast members are Joel Edgerton (Owen Lars), Jay Laga'aia (Captain Typho) and Rena Owen (Taun We).


In addition to confirming the return of these supporting characters, the site also mentions an additional seven new faces: Kee Chan, Christopher Kirby and Warren Owens (Senators), Chantal Freer and Kristy Wright (handmaidens), Rebecca Jackson Mendoza (a royal leader, likely Naboo's new queen) and Rohan Nichol (a young captain). In typical style for the website, the names and precise details of the characters are being kept hush-hush.


Shooting is about to start in Sydney, Australia.

Yet Another Title for EPISODE III

Moviehole is reporting that the new title for STAR WARS EPISODE III is AN EMPIRE DIVIDED. Lucasfilm hasn't had time to deny this one yet.

It's not An Empire Devided

At least probably not, An Empire Divided is the name used by the recently released PC game " Star Wars Galaxies - An Empire Devided ". I doubt they would use the same name as one of thier PC games.
