About
As of 2026, it's 11 years old.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens revived the dormant franchise in 2015 to staggering, record-shattering box office, reintroducing the galaxy to a new generation with fresh heroes and a comforting helping of nostalgia (a desert planet, a Death Star-ish threat, beloved legacy faces). It was the cultural reset Star Wars needed.
BB-8, Rey, and the return of Han Solo made it an event, even as fans gently noted how much it rhymed with the original.
Thrilling, nostalgic, and record-breaking, The Force Awakens is the film that woke a sleeping franchise and proved the galaxy far, far away still packed theaters.
