The first Star Wars movie had no subtitle when it was released in theaters, but George Lucas later decided to retitle the film 'A New Hope.'
Star Wars creator George Lucas changed the title of the first movie to A New Hope, and the explanation behind his decision is very interesting. Episode numbers and subtitles may be an essential part of the Star Wars saga now, but that wasn't the case when the original movie came out in 1977. This reflects Lucas' original expectations for Star Wars and how his plans changed after the movie became an enormous success.
A New Hope also started the tradition of Star Wars movie titles with multiple interpretations. Return of the Jedi, The Phantom Menace, and The Last Jedi either had different meanings or significance that weren't clear right away. However, there is a clear explanation for A New Hope's title and why Lucas retitled Star Wars in the first place.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Why George Lucas Called Star Wars "A New Hope" Lucas wanted Star Wars to feel like a story the audience was coming into the middle of, one of the many ways Flash Gordon influenced the Star Wars trilogy. Because viewers may not have seen the last episode, there would always be an opening crawl to explain what happened last time, something that Lucas adopted for every Star Wars film.
