Star Wars: Attack of the Clones

With mystery and romance, Attack of the Clones helped carry cinema into the digital age

Written and directed by George Lucas, the filmmaker was eager to tell his story in a new kind of way.

With the leadership of Lucas and Visual Effects Supervisor John Knoll, Attack of the Clones was one of the first major motion pictures to be captured digitally, and featured computer-generated characters and environments that placed live action actors in truly immersive worlds.

Leaving a galaxy engulfed in war, the story of Episode II gave rise to many of the greatest Star Wars adventures yet to come…
