Disney has announced this week that the blockbuster 'Star Wars' series will be available as HD digital downloads for the first time ever, starting on Friday.
Dubbed 'The Star Wars Digital Movie Collection,' downloaders will get all six of the films and some bonus features. Each movie is also available individually if you are not a fan of specific movies (looking at you Phantom Menace).
"Since the debut of the first film nearly 40 years ago, Star Wars has become a worldwide phenomenon with legions of fans from every generation," said Alan Bergman, president, The Walt Disney Studios. "It's only fitting that audiences enjoy this legendary saga and its many fascinating behind-the-scenes stories on a wide variety of devices."
