May the 4th be with you: The best Star Wars Day 2025 deals and new products

CNN01-05-2025
My favorite unofficial holiday is almost here! May the 4th, also known as Star Wars Day, is a celebration of all things from a galaxy far, far away. As an editor who has been fawning over Star Wars for nearly her entire life, I am so excited to be rounding up all the best deals and new product launches, many of which I will be shopping myself.
This year's Star Wars Day is extra special because it coincides with the 20th anniversary of 2005's 'Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith.' It's my favorite flick from the franchise, so these deals may be a bit biased to include some Episode III offerings. But even if you prefer the Original Trilogy, one thing you can count on is that these are the best May the 4th deals to shop this year.
Ahead of May 4, many of the deals and new launches are already live. There's sure to be more this weekend, but you can get a head start now. I'll update this story for the next several days, so keep checking back for the latest offers. Take it from one Star Wars fan to another and dive in, below.
Retailers including Amazon, Lego, Target and Walmart are getting in on the Star Wars Day action. If you're looking for all the different sales in one place, these are the best. Before I dive into different categories, this is the perfect starting point to save or check out what's new for 2025.

Each time I get on a video call with a new coworker, we always spend the first half hour talking about every little collectible stationed on the massive shelf behind me, especially the majority that are Lego Star Wars kits. Luckily, the biggest sale of the year on Lego kits from the Star Wars universe is live for May the 4th. Below, you'll find deals on many of the sets I own.

Each spring, Lego launches a massive new kit from the Star Wars universe for May the 4th as part of its Ultimate Collector Series (UCS). This year's is the first recreation of Jango Fett's ship since all the way back in 2022. I'll be buying this kit for myself.

This might be the most odd Lego set we've seen in ages, but there's certainly some charm to a brick-built Star Wars logo. I won't spoil the fun, but there's a reference to "A New Hope" to be discovered as part of the assembly process.

DealsStar Wars: A New Hope Blu-ray

This case also comes in different versions to fit with Apple's newest iPhone 16 devices, but also has the option for a chromed finish to really exhibit the Protocol droid vibes from the franchise. Backpacks, baseball jerseys and watches are just some of the Star Wars Day offerings to shop this year. I expect to see more deals trickle in through the weekend as May the 4th gets closer, but there are still some notable discounts to peruse ahead of time.
DealsCitizen Eco-Drive Star Wars The Mandalorian Watch
Clip the on-page coupon to score a new all-time low price on this Mandalorian-inspired timepiece from Citizen. The black stainless steel casing is reminiscent of the bounty hunter's Beskar armor.

Star Wars X RockLove Yoda Kyber Crystal Necklace
RockLove makes some of the best jewelry for geeks. Quite a few of these Kyber Crystal necklaces are on sale right now, but this green one really pops. New releasesHoth Echo Base Baseball Jersey
I picked up one of these jerseys and am shocked by how good the quality is. It feels like an official jersey from the MLB shop. The sizing is a little big, so I would order a size down from what you'd normally wear.
Vera Bradley Star Wars Bancroft Backpack
My fellow deals expert at CNN Underscored, Elena Matarazzo, has been a fan of Vera Bradley since her elementary school days and loves the brand's lightweight and machine-washable bags. So, I had to include its new Star Wars backpack.
BaubleBar Grogu Ring Set
Most of my colleagues love BaubleBar, and the company is now launching something that is getting me on board with its jewelry. This adorable ring set comes with four interlocking rings that deck out your finger with Grogu.
Heroes and Villains The Mandalorian Tee
Heroes and Villains makes some of the best Star Wars apparel. Now for May the 4th, the brand has a collection of Western-inspired shirts featuring various bounty hunters like Mando.
Boba Fett Baseball Jersey
If you prefer the outlaw vibes of everyone's favorite bounty hunter, this Boba Fett jersey has the same quality build as the Hoth counterpart I own. The sizing is a little big, so I would order a size down from what you'd normally wear.
Loungefly Hoth Mini Backpack
Loungefly bags are super popular across all fandoms, but this Hoth-inspired backpack is just for fans of "The Empire Strikes Back." I love the light blue color scheme and the prominent AT-AT design on the lower pocket. There are always some Star Wars deals floating around the web, but it's not every day that this many discounts are live at once. May the 4th, being Star Wars Day, is the best chance to save on everything from toys and collectibles to apparel, DVDs and more. Odds are, if a product is inspired by the Millennium Falcon or comes outfitted with an Imperial logo, it's on sale today.
Our senior deals editor Rikka Altland has been enjoying Star Wars since before she could form full sentences. If you're looking for deals and new product launches that are curated by a true fan, then there's no better place on the web to shop. Her home is filled with Lego starfighters, light-up lightsabers and an assortment of Astromech droids. She even has a Star Wars tattoo of Hunter, Wrecker, Crosshair and the rest of the Bad Batch members.
Altland combines that passion for the sci-fi franchise with her decade of experience hunting for deals. She has worked in the service journalism industry for nearly a decade and regularly reviews tech for a living, frequently collaborating with CNN Underscored's team of testing experts.

Disney's Asad Ayaz to Oversee Entertainment Marketing, Shannon Ryan Duties Expand to Include Streaming With Hulu-Disney+ Merger

With Disney+ and Hulu set to merge in 2026 — and Hulu's standalone app going away — Disney is reshuffling the marketing leadership of its entertainment division. Asad Ayaz, appointed as the first chief brand officer for the Walt Disney Co. in 2023, is now also adding the role of president of Disney Entertainment Marketing, with oversight of marketing teams across the division. Ayaz now reports to Disney Entertainment co-chairmen Alan Bergman and Dana Walden, and he will continue as one of CEO Bob Iger's direct reports. Ayaz will now oversee marketing for studios, TV and streaming while continuing to lead brand strategy for Disney overall under Iger, including managing the company's in-house creative agencies.

Samantha Rosenberg, who has led Disney+ marketing as executive VP, and Barrie Gruner, EVP of Hulu marketing, will both report to Ryan. The consolidation of Disney's DTC marketing teams under Ryan follows last week's announcement that Disney will fully integrate Hulu into Disney+. The new 'unified' Disney+ and Hulu streaming app will be available in 2026, with the standalone Hulu platform to be retired (although users will still be able to subscribe to each individual service, according to the company). In addition, the Hulu brand will going global, replacing the Star tile on Disney+ internationally starting this fall. Putting Ayaz in charge of all Disney Entertainment marketing will 'create a more unified strategy across streaming, film, and television,' Walden and Bergman wrote in a memo to staff (read it below). Regarding Ryan's new role, the co-chairs said that having 'one cohesive DTC marketing team will enable us to speak to consumers with greater efficiency and impact, and this new structure will also create a deeper connection and collaboration across all of our marketing efforts.'

She had previously served as chief marketing officer of the Fox Television Group, and had worked at Fox Broadcasting for 13 years. Read the memo from Walden and Bergman: Subject: Disney Entertainment Marketing Update Team, Disney Entertainment is home to an iconic and acclaimed collection of storytelling brands, and our marketing teams play a vital role in bringing the magic of Disney storytelling to audiences around the world. As we continue to scale our business globally, we'd like to share an update about the future of our marketing structure, particularly focused on supporting the full integration of Hulu into Disney+ that Bob announced during earnings last week. To create a more unified strategy across streaming, film, and television, we're realigning our marketing organization to create one best-in-class Disney Entertainment Marketing team under the leadership of Asad Ayaz, who will now report to the both of us.

These changes reflect our confidence in the exceptional talent across our marketing organization, and we're excited for what's ahead. We are grateful for your continued creativity, passion, and partnership as we shape the future of Disney Entertainment together.

Antony Starr Says Goodbye to ‘The Boys' in Emotional Instagram Tribute

Antony Starr has officially hung up his Homelander cape. The actor took to Instagram on Wednesday, August 13, to commemorate the end of filming of The Boys' fifth and final season. 'Ok. Been waiting a little to let things settle and try and process the end of this show. The Boys,' Starr began his lengthy caption. 'Difficult (for me) to put into words what an incredible ride this has been. How much life and growth has occurred. How amazing the team is. It's truly been the highlight of my career.' Starr said he 'had no idea what was coming' when the Prime Video superhero series premiered back in 2019. 'This juggernaut left the station and never stopped. Except for that Covid moment. Oh and the strikes. That was a thing too,' he quipped. 'But apart from those two times, it never stopped, boldly making its mark on the television landscape. There's nothing else like it. It lives in its own lane.' Starr went on to thank the show's crew, production team, and his fellow castmates. 'The people at Amazon and Sony that took a chance on this insane thing (and made the great choice in casting me ) and all the other people that contributed in some way, big or small, to this beautiful, complex, warped, delicious show,' he wrote. Starr continued, 'I love this show. And I love this character. Truly. I will dearly miss heading to work, knowing what we were aiming for but never knowing where we would find ourselves by the end of the day…only that we would have fun and it would be creatively rewarding in the extreme. This complicated character allowed the space and range to discover and push boundaries in a way I never expected and I will always be grateful for this experience.' Nathan Mitchell via Eric Kripke on X Starr also gave a special shout-out to the show's creator, Eric Kripke, for helping him create the 'monster' that is Homelander. 'I will miss him, and you. Til we roll out the last season. When I'll see you,' he said. 'But this creative chapter is closed, and I'll miss it, brother.' Starr concluded his tribute by thanking The Boys' passionate fanbase, 'You are the life blood. Without you, we don't get to do this. And our fans are second to none. Mad love to you….and deepest respect for your taste ;),' he wrote. 'Okidoke people. We cooked for the last time. Can't wait to show you what we made. TIL that day, Homelander, signing off. Xo.' Starr's post featured behind-the-scenes and promotional photos from The Boys over the years, including a selfie he snapped while drenched in fake blood, an on-set pic of himself and Aya Cash filming her character Stormfront's near-fatal Season 2 fight, one of the show's first posters of Homelander, and more. Several of Starr's costars shared their love in the post's comments. 'Love you buddy ,' wrote Nathan Mitchell, a.k.a. Black Noir. Erin Moriarty, who plays Starlight, commented, 'A gift to get to watch your masterclass in acting, let alone boogie w you during it. .' Karen Fukuhara, who plays Kimiko Miyashiro, wrote, 'What a f**king time we had. Grateful to have had this experience with you + greatly miss it already .' Kripke announced that Season 5 had wrapped filming by sharing a photo of his last time standing on the Seven meeting room set via Instagram on July 1. 'It's bittersweet, but my primary feeling is gratitude. We have the best cast, the best crew, the most fun story to write, and something that is impossible to predict: the right timing,' he captioned the pic. 'You wait your whole career to have maybe two of those things, if you're lucky. We got all of them. To #TheBoys family: thank you, I love you all. To the fans: thanks for watching, can't wait for you to see the grand finale. That's a wrap.' , Season 5 Premiere, TBA, Prime Video Solve the daily Crossword
