In his admirable bid to recapture the essence of the original trilogy, director J.J. Abrams made the somewhat contentious decision to shoot Star Wars: The Force Awakens on 35mm film, favoring the old-school approach over digital methods.

Joining the likes of Quentin Tarantino’s The Hateful Eight and, soon, WWII epic Dunkirk, Movieweb is reporting that Episode IX will be shot on 65mm film, allowing directors – Colin Trevorrow, in this instance – to capture a much clearer image on a grand scale.
