Never seen before . . . Darth Vader's approach to the Star Destroyer.

 

 

 

In the original evacuation from Cloud City, Darth Vader is last seen in an interior scene striding towards the doorway leading to a landing platform on Bespin. He is next seen on his Star Destroyer. For the Star Wars Trilogy Special Edition, George Lucas wanted to depict Darth's travel from Cloud City to his Star Destroyer.

 

A computer generated version of Darth's Imperial Shuttle flies toward the camera from Bespin. The Bespin element is a matte painting from the original release.

 

The new CG shuttle can be seen in this image. The Planet was added later to complete the shot.

 

 

 

Another CG image of the shuttle is used for Darth Vader's approach to the Star Destroyer. In this case, the Imperial Cruiser is added later to complete the shot. The CG shuttle flies toward the Star Destroyer which is an original element from the first trilogy.
