根據網路消息只出，老盧去年在「突尼西亞」（塔土印沙漠星球的主要拍攝地點）在拍攝「二部曲」時已經順便幫「三部曲」拍一場畫面了，因為「三部曲」中還會出現這些畫面，老盧不用再大隊人馬拉到「突尼西亞」只為「三部曲」拍一場畫面。

說到「突尼西亞」，我記得美國有一個旅行社專辦「星際大戰」之旅的，就是出團到「突尼西亞」觀光當年拍攝星際大戰的場景，帶遊客到和電影一模一樣的地方拍照留念，想不到老盧對非洲的觀光事業也有所貢獻。

Star Wars: Episode III: You heard those rumours that some "Episode III" footage was shot during the filming of Episode II? Seems they were right. According to the newly renovated official site it seems whilst filming last year in Tunisia, Lucas shot one scene for Ep3 whilst filming the Episode II scenes set at the Skywalker homestead on Tattoine which will resemble the layout used in the original 1977 movie. So why bother doing it? "It means that now I don't have to come back here...It's a long way to come and bring a crew of 60 people just to shoot one shot--and then rebuild the set and all the other stuff we have to do - in three years".
