JAKARTA - To celebrate Star Wars Day, Disney Plus will release the film Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker on Monday, May 4. Previously, this film was scheduled to appear on Disney's streaming service in July.

The joining of The Rise of Skywalker to Disney Plus makes the entire Skywalker series - including Star Wars: The Clone Wars and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story - now digitally viewable. What is different is the speed with which The Rise of Skywalker has moved to digital compared to other Star Wars films.

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker just airs in December 2019 as the closing of a trilogy series directed by JJ Abrams. This film concludes the journey of Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Princess Leia, and others after Return of the Jedi.

In addition to presenting the latest Star Wars series, Disney Plus celebrates May 4 or May the Fourth by changing the appearance of the profile icon on their streaming service with Star Wars characters. In addition, all the film posters and series have also been turned into artwork by Ralph McQuarrie and Doug Chiang who were Grammy winners for Best Visual Effects. The final season of Star Wars: The Mandalorian is also released today to end the story that started in November 2019.

May the Fourth is fan-initiated as Star Wars Day. Its origin is the catchphrase 'May the Force Be With You' that Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi used to say during his life. Then, fans began to celebrate May 4 every year even though Lucasfilm was not inaugurated, who incidentally was the creator of Star Wars.

The first celebrations started in 2011 in Ontario, Canada, filled with game shows, costume contests, and parodies related to Star Wars. Then, Star Wars fans began celebrating May 4 in various ways, both in person and through social media.

Currently, Disney Plus users can watch the last Star Wars series. For new users, there is a 7 day trial period followed by a payment of 6 United States dollars.
