Today is Star Wars Day! Like every year, fans all over the world celebrate the 4th of May in the streets in cinematic costumes.

But why is May 4th actually Star Wars Day?

This results from a play on words: the English pronunciation of the date “May, the fourth” (May 4th) sounds similar to the cult phrase from the film: “May the force be with you” (in German: “Möge the force be with you.”).

Since 2011, the day has been extensively celebrated, especially among “Star Wars” fans. The day has now arrived in almost all areas of society.

did you know that? In 2015, astronauts on the “International Space Station” watched a film on this date. Which? Star Wars, of course!

Another highlight: Many streaming providers like NetflixDisney and Amazon Prime release numerous Star Wars films on the day. The next film marathon is set!
