Star Wars is celebrating the 20th anniversary of Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith this year with a theatrical re-release of the movie beginning on April 25th, and this adorable Darth Vader helmet cup is the perfect way to do so. Although the prequels faced quite a bit of backlash when they were first released, they have since become beloved, with many now seeing Revenge of the Sith in particular as one of Star Wars’ best movies. Because of that, there’s sure to be plenty of fanfare around Revenge of the Sith’s return to theaters.

Accompanying Revenge of the Sith’s limited re-release in certain movie theaters is some brand-new Star Wars memorabilia. Among those items is this Darth Vader helmet cup, shared on X by DiscussingFilm.

This cup is incredibly charming, but it’s also a brilliant reminder of just how much fun seeing Revenge of the Sith in theaters once again is going to be.

Revenge Of The Sith’s Anniversary Release Will Be A Fantastic Experience

This Is Sure To Be A Mᴀssive Celebration

In some ways, it feels like Star Wars movies and TV shows in recent years have been building toward a major celebration of Revenge of the Sith’s anniversary, particularly with Hayden Christensen reprising his role as Anakin Skywalker in Obi-Wan Kenobi and Ahsoka after years away from the Star Wars screen. Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader has always been one of Star Wars’ best characters, but Christensen was on the receiving end of some brutal criticism for the prequel movies. Now, that couldn’t be further from the truth.

On the contrary, seeing Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen in these roles on the big screen once again will be a momentous occasion for many Star Wars viewers. That theaters are celebrating with charming new memorabilia just makes it all the better. In fact, in addition to Vader’s helmet cup, the Darth Vader popcorn bucket is the perfect way to honor Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader—popcorn available in sweet, salted, and slightly burnt.

Our Take On Revenge Of The Sith’s Anniversary

We Can’t Wait To Experience This Movie On The Big Screen 20 Years Later

As a kid of the 90s, Revenge of the Sith has been my favorite Star Wars movie since it was released in 2005, and I couldn’t be more excited to get to experience it on the big screen once again. There is so much in this movie that will be absolutely incredible to see in theaters, from thrilling scenes like Anakin Skywalker’s thrilling emergency landing on Coruscant to devastating moments like Obi-Wan and Anakin’s final goodbye on Mustafar. It’s also more than time for this movie to be properly celebrated, given much of its initial reception.

April will be busy for Star Wars, with Star Wars Celebration from April 18th – 20th, Andor season 2 premiering on Disney+ on April 22nd, and Revenge of the Sith hitting theaters on April 25th. It’s somewhat surprising that Revenge of the Sith’s re-release will follow on the heels of Celebration, but perhaps the franchise wanted each event to shine separately. Whatever the reason, I can’t wait to see Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith in theaters—and get my hands on that Darth Vader helmet cup.
