George Lucas Comes To Celebration V!

 

The week's winding down, but we don't take Fridays lightly. No. Especially this Friday. This Friday is special. This Friday is very special.

 

We are very, very proud to announce Star Wars creator George Lucas will make a special guest appearance at Star Wars Celebration V this August in Orlando! This will be Lucas's second Celebration appearance, and only his third Star Wars convention appearance, the last of which was Celebration III in Indianapolis, Indiana, in 2005.

 

Lucas will appear onstage during the four-day run of the show, with the specific information about dates, times, and where and when to start the line coming later this summer. (You can ask, but we can't tell you yet.) Celebration V takes place August 12-15, 2010 at the Orange County Convention Center.

Fast Action Heroes at Celebration V

 

Two men of action from the Star Wars Saga will be signing autographs and meeting fans at Star Wars Celebration V this August! Nick Gillard and Ray Park are coming to Orlando!

 

Nick Gillard - Swordmaster and Stunt Coordinator Nick Gillard will share his stories of creating the exciting lightsaber scenes in Episodes I, II, and III. Gillard has been the master choreographer behind some of the most memorable moments of the prequels, including the “Duel of the Fates” battle between Darth Maul, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and Qui-Gon Jinn in The Phantom Menace, and Anakin Skywalker’s duel against Obi-Wan Kenobi in Revenge of the Sith. Gillard created individual fighting styles for each of the Jedi in the films, even though some of these were “fictional” martial arts. He felt that each style used needed to have an authentic, real-life feel. Taking into account each character’s distinctive personality and position in the Jedi order helped Gillard fashion a fighting style best suited to each. In addition to the Star Wars prequels, Gillard’s credits as stunt coordinator include the movies Dirty Pretty Things, Reign of Fire, Shaft, Sleepy Hollow, and Wanted, among many others. At Celebration V, fans can catch an interview with Gillard, and hear behind-the-scenes stories on the work that goes into making memorable and believable fight scenes. They can also meet the stunt master in the Celebration Autograph Hall, run by Official Pix.

 

Ray Park - Ray Park, the actor and acclaimed martial artist who performed Darth Maul in The Phantom Menace, became one of the iconic faces of the dark side for the Star Wars Saga. Park, who is a fan favorite whenever he appears, will be signing autographs, meeting fans, and is scheduled to appear on stage for an interview and question and answer session during the Celebration weekend. Park has performed in X-Men, Sleepy Hollow, and Mortal Kombat: Annihilation in addition to Episode I. Recent credits include the character Snake Eyes in G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, a THX security guard in Fanboys, and Edgar in the 2009 and 2010 seasons of television’s Heroes.
