The Mandalorian’s creator Jon Favreau may have revealed in an interview why Disney will not release the theatrical versions of the Star Wars OT.

Creator of The Mandalorian, Jon Favreau, may have offered up some details on why it is unlikely for Disney to ever release the theatrical versions of the original Star Wars trilogy. Some younger fans may not know the difference, however, any longtime fans of Star Wars will remember the original trilogy differently from the versions commonly seen recently, which George Lucas released in 1997.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY In an interview with Moovy TV for The Mandalorian season 3, Favreau was asked whether he had enough pull within Lucasfilm to see the theatrical versions of the original Star Wars trilogy released in HD. "Do you think anybody but us, like the people who grew up with it, would care? That's what I figured out: that the younger people have a whole different perception of what Star Wars is, you know? Each generation... for the millennials it's the prequels, for younger people... sometimes it's The Clone Wars."

With Favreau going on to state that The Mandalorian was an attempt to appeal to both the younger audience with a different perception of Star Wars and the older generation who know the original editions of the Star Wars trilogy, he offers some interesting insight into why Disney probably will not release the original trilogy as they initially were in the 1970s and 80s. Given his current position, he's not likely to have the kind of pull for such a decision, either.

Similarly, given that entirely new generations are growing up with even more progressive Star Wars TV shows like The Clone Wars or the sequel trilogy, the Special Editions likely appeal to those demographics much more given their "modern" style. The updated CGI and more impressive visuals certainly link to the visual language of the prequels and sequels more than the original theatrical Star Wars films did.
