Aston Martin announced a partnership with Star Wars on the occasion of the franchise’s 50th anniversary, with the collaboration set to continue throughout the next year. The British brand will celebrate the series’ history, but the specific details are not yet known about how the collaboration will proceed.

According to Aston Martin, the partnership will combine British craftsmanship with cinematic storytelling through a series of initiatives and collaborations throughout the year. The collaboration between Aston Martin, Disney, and Lucasfilm is unusual, as none of the British brand’s cars have appeared in a Star Wars film.

The only connection between Aston Martin and Star Wars dates back to March 2024, when the company filed a trademark application for the name Venator. This name was used for Venator-class Star Destroyers of the Republic, which appeared in the 2005 film ‘Revenge of the Sith’ and became part of the animated series ‘The Clone Wars’.

Aston Martin will announce more details about its 50th anniversary Star Wars program at the beginning of 2027. In addition to the initiatives with Disney and Lucasfilm, it is not excluded that the British brand may present special editions or equipment packages inspired by space.
