Written and directed by George Lucas, Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace made its debut on May 19, 1999, causing quite a bit of discussion due to the aforementioned Jar Jar Binks and some additions to the Star Wars mythology such as midi-chlorians, which many believe have turned the Force into some kind of blood disease. Despite this, it grossed more than $1 billion globally, entering the ranking of the 50 most profitable films of all time.
Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace begins the so-called Skywalker saga, introducing a very young Anakin Skywalker, then Darth Vader, and serving as a prelude to the events that will lead to the birth of the Empire. Among the performers, we remember a very young Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan Kenobi, Liam Neeson as Qui-Gon Jinn and Natalie Portman as Padme.
