In the early 60s Kershner continues to hone his directorial skills shooting television series.
All 70-ies the director works in sweat and in 1980 he expects a triumph: he shoots the second part of “Star Wars” – the film “The Empire Strikes Back” and in 1983 – “Never Say Never”.
In addition, the director does not give up acting work, appearing several times on the screen in supporting roles. Kershner shoots a lot and now one of his last works - "Forbidden Planet" remake of the classic tape of the 50s.
