THE FINAL SCRIPT OF STAR WARS: EPISODE III REVENGE OF THE SITH What follows is the final script by George Lucas, accompanied by many final frames from the movie. The script is the result of a rough draft and four subsequent drafts—all written before principal photography began in Sydney, Australia—as well as extensive revisions made during postproduction, including new scenes added during the pickups at Shepperton Studios in England (for a detailed description of Lucas's writing process, see The Making of Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith). An example of previous revisions can be seen by comparing two versions of the film's opening crawl: FIRST DRAFT:
APRIL 13, 2003 War! General Grievous, commander of the separatist armies, has attacked Coruscant, the capital of the Republic, and has been driven back by the Jedi Commanders and their army of clones. Evil is everywhere. There are heroes on both sides. Separatist commandos have kidnapped Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, leader of the Galactic Senate. In the midst of the battle, two Jedi have discovered the starship where Chancellor Palpatine is being held captive and are attempting a rescue. . . . FOURTH DRAFT:
JUNE 26, 2003 War! The Republic is crumbling under the brutal attacks by the Separatist leader, Count Dooku. There are heroes on both sides. Evil is everywhere. In a stunning move, the dreaded Separatist General Grievous has swept into the Republic capital and kidnapped Chancellor Palpatine, leader of the Galactic Senate. As the Separatist Droid Army attempts to flee the besieged Capital with their valuable hostage, two Jedi Knights lead a desperate mission to rescue the captive Chancellor. . . . Not only did Lucas change the script from draft to draft, he altered it extensively in the editing room, by moving scenes around, deleting some, adding others, and inter-cutting many. As a result, the scene numbers attributed to the shooting script used on the set in Sydney are different from those of the final script. For easy reader reference, scene numbers in parentheses refer to the shooting script scene number, as they appear in the Art of and Making of Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith.
1 EXT. SPACE A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. . . . A vast sea of stars serves as the backdrop for the Main Title, followed by a rollup, which crawls into infinity. War! The Republic is crumbling under attacks by the ruthless Sith Lord, Count Dooku. There are heroes on both sides. Evil is everywhere. In a stunning move, the fiendish droid leader, General Grievous, has swept into the Republic capital and kidnapped Chancellor Palpatine, leader of the Galactic Senate. As the Separatist Droid Army attempts to flee the besieged capital with their valuable hostage, two Jedi Knights lead a desperate mission to rescue the captive Chancellor. . . . PAN DOWN to reveal a REPUBLIC ATTACK CRUISER. Continue to PAN with the Cruiser as TWO JEDI STARFIGHTERS enter and head toward an enemy Battle Cruiser. TRUCK with the Jedi Fighters as they maneuver in unison, dodging flack and enemy laser fire. R2-D2 is on Anakin's ship. R4-P17 is on Obi-Wan's ship. A giant space battle is revealed as the tiny Jedi ships continue their assault in a synchronous ballet.
2 INT. OBI-WAN'S STARFIGHTER COCKPIT—SPACE OBI-WAN bounces through the flack with a frown. His ship rocks violently.
3 INT. ANAKIN'S STARFIGHTER COCKPIT—SPACE ANAKIN smiles as he blasts a TRADE FEDERATION DROID DROP FIGHTER. ANAKIN: There isn't a droid made that can out fly you, Master, and no other way to get to the Chancellor . . . OBI-WAN: Look out, four droids inbound . . .
