    Last year was a big year for Star Wars fans, since not only did Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge open (at Disneyland and Disney's Hollywood Studios) and The Mandalorian premiere on Disney+, but we also got the final Star Wars film, The Rise of Skywalker, released into theaters.

    While the movie might have divided some Star Wars fans, one thing is for sure: We truly got an epic goodbye to the Skywalker saga. And in celebration of the film's release digitally and on Blu-ray, Lucasfilm gave BuzzFeed some behind-the-scenes photos taken during the making of The Rise of Skywalker.
