Anyone who’s been keeping up with the news about Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens knows that one of the biggest mysteries thus far is concerning what has become of the franchise’s biggest hero, Luke Skywalker.

Now, the results of all the furious fan-scrambling have been revealed and The Force Awakens has already sold $50 million worth of tickets a month before the movie even opens. Instead, most movies rake in ticket sales within the final two weeks of the year, particularly the sweet spot between the Christmas and New Year weekends.

So far the footage has been viewed more than 564,000 times on YouTube so it looks like the stunt was successful in getting the word out.

Enlarge ‘Jurassic World’ notched a record $208 million opening weekend record. When the original trilogy was issued on DVD several years ago, he tweaked the special effects.

Mr Mabire added: “It will appeal to both art collectors and fans of Star Wars alike – giving people a chance to own their own piece of comic book history”.
