Star Wars: A New Hope is coming to Cosm’s LED domes in March 2027 for the film’s 50th anniversary, playing in its original frame while the dome around it takes the audience to Tatooine, inside the Death Star and into the trench run. It plays Cosm’s Atlanta, Dallas, Detroit and Los Angeles venues, and tickets go on sale in 2027.

What You See in the Dome

Cosm’s venues are built around an 87-foot, 12K+ LED dome that fills the space over and around the audience, a format Cosm calls Shared Reality. A New Hope plays in its original 16:9 frame at the center of the dome, and the rest of the dome changes with the story. Guests land on the desert planet of Tatooine, witness the destruction of Alderaan, meet the Rebel Alliance on the fourth moon of Yavin, step inside the Death Star and fly alongside the Millennium Falcon in the final trench run.

Cosm built it with Disney, Lucasfilm, Industrial Light & Magic and MakeMake, and it uses the 2019 version of the film, rated PG on Cosm’s key art.

“The Star Wars franchise blazed the trail for cinematic fandom and has been the north star of the entertainment industry since the original film debuted in 1977,” said Alexis Scalice, VP and head of Cosm Studios.
