A Luke Skywalker lightsaber prop from “The Empire Strikes Back” is scheduled to go up for auction with an expected sale price of at least $1 million, according to reporting from The Independent and CBS News. The item is described as an iconic piece of Hollywood memorabilia tied to the Star Wars franchise and is expected to attract significant bids because of its association with one of the series’ best-known films and characters.
Both sources frame the auction as a notable event for film memorabilia collectors, highlighting that the lightsaber is among the prominent items offered. CBS News also notes that additional well-known film props are included in the auction, suggesting the sale extends beyond the single Star Wars item.
While exact auction details such as location, date, and the full list of items are not provided in the excerpts, the shared core point across outlets is the lightsaber’s estimated value and its place in a larger offering of iconic movie props.
