We've used A New Hope as an anchor point in the timeline, which tends to be how the timeline is measured officially in the fictional universe – in-universe dates are traditionally listed relative to the Battle of Yavin, the assault on the Death Star that closes A New Hope. You'll find every live-action Star Wars movie to date in the list below – all nine Episodes of the Skywalker Saga, and Solo: A Star Wars Story and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. And when you add the standalone Solo: A Star Wars Story and Rogue One: A Star Wars Story into the list, A New Hope actually becomes the sixth movie in the overall chronology. Meanwhile, the fourth movie to hit cinemas (The Phantom Menace) comes first in chronological order. These days, the first Star Wars movie ever released (A New Hope) is actually the fourth movie in the Skywalker Saga. (The Skywalker Saga is the term Lucasfilm uses to describe Episodes I-IX, in which Anakin Skywalker and his descendants have considerable influence over the galaxy.) Then the Prequel Trilogy made things more complicated, by going back in time to tell the story of Anakin Skywalker before he became Darth Vader. Luke Skywalker takes his first steps into a larger world (Image credit: Disney/LucasFilm)Ī long time ago, it was easy to know how to watch the Star Wars movies in order – until 1999, all of the movies fit into the timeline of a galaxy far, far away in the order they landed in theaters.
