For “Star Wars” fans, May 4 is a day of celebration. You’ll likely hear someone say, “May the 4th be with you,” a playful twist on one of the franchise’s most iconic lines.
The saying comes from a line of dialogue in the 1977 film, “Star Wars,” which gained the expanded title “Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope” as George Lucas’ space opera saga expanded over the decades. In the film, before the rebel fighters begin their assault on the Death Star, General Dodonna encourages them with the command: “Then man your ships! And may the Force be with you!”
