Pick Your Movie – Star Wars Chronology
While there are a few ways to order Star Wars, we prefer to watch them in chronological order. Since there are so many movies, you could make this a weekly movie night on a certain night of the week! We like to do a theme night on Sunday’s and try one new recipe that night too.
Disney+ has every Star Wars movie if you’re able to stream.
Star Wars movies in chronological order:
- Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace
- Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones
- Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
- Solo: A Star Wars Story
- Rogue One: A Star Wars Story
- Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope
- Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back
- Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi
- Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens
- Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi
- Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker
Another option would be to watch the movies in order of the original release date. If you choose this route, the story will be out of order as Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope was the first movie to come out.
