Serien kommer inte handla om huvudkaraktärerna.
Nej, den ska handla om "Imperial Bounty hunters".

Star Wars’ Season One Set For 2007

Star Wars may be over on the big screen, but fans have every reason to be excited. “Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith” is set to be the biggest grossing theatrical release of the year and will be available on DVD in less than a month. Meanwhile, early work on the two forthcoming television series is progressing well, according to Now Playing Magazine.
"The live-action television series is something we're planning for just at the beginning of 2007," said producer Rick McCallum. "We're just starting to interview writers and trying to really figure out which direction to go … George Lucas envisions somewhere like 100 hours, set between Episode III and Episode IV with a lot of characters that we haven't met but [who] have been developed in some of the novels and other things. We're really excited about that because I think finally we're going to have the opportunity to answer everybody's questions once and for all by the time we finish the series."
The show will be dark and gritty, McCallum said, which would be in keeping with current trends in science fiction television. It is not clear, though, whether the plan is to make it even more adult than “Revenge of the Sith,” which warranted its PG-13 rating. If so, the series is likely to have more in common with “C.S.I.” than “Star Trek.”
Location shooting will take place in various parts of the world, McCallum said. It will also be done on the latest high definition camera equipment. Don’t believe any casting rumors that you might have heard, though. Neither the live-action nor the animated series has any actors attached at this stage. Voice-over parts for the latter may be available soon, however, because early animation work is already underway.
"The animation is being done as we speak," said McCallum. "It's starting to prep. That's being done here at the Ranch. A lot of the effects are being done in Singapore ... I think it's just now in the conceptual work and script work [phase]. I think George is trying to get 13 scripts done first before we really start to get into the pipeline of it. But that'll start happening probably at the end of March."
In addition to the new series, there are also other treats coming for Star Wars fans. On Novmber 1, Fox Home Entertainment will release a 2-disc special edition of “Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith” on DVD. Among the special features will be deleted scenes that provide details of the birth of the Rebel Alliance and other important events.
"The deleted scenes include one that fans have been waiting a long time to see, one that shows Yoda arriving on the swamp planet of Dagobah," said Jim Ward, Senior Vice President of Lucasfilm and Executive Producer of the DVD release, on the official Star Wars website. "George worked with Industrial Light & Magic and Producer Rick McCallum to finish most of these scenes with complete visual effects and sound design, and they bring a new perspective to the movie."
George Lucas has also said that he wants to re-release all of the movies in 3D form. It is doubtful that we’ll be watching them through old-fashioned cardboard glasses, though. Knowing Lucas, he will be using cutting edge technology to add yet another new dimension to the Star Wars saga.

Tack endå. Skapade tråden med inspiration från Batman Begins-tråden, bättre att samla alla nyheter på ett ställe en att skapa nya trådar för varje nyhet. Men det är bara min högst personliga åsikt..

Det hindrar ju inte att några av dom gör gästinhopp. Det skulle ju vara coolt om man fick se uppbyggnaden av The Galactic Empire i bakgrunden av huvudstoryn.

Walker: Det är allmänt känt att Imperiet använde Prisjägare för att utföra deras dirty work. Möjligt att det kommer handla om Boba Fett. (Vilket vissa på sw.nu rasar över, snart är han lika mystisk som XCs kön...)
. Har absolut inget emot att Fett (eller för den delen Solo) medverkar i tv-serien.

The Force just might be with Edward Furlong.
In a posting on TVGUIDE.COM, in section called "Ask Ausiello" in which writer Michael Ausiello fields questions from fans, we noticed the following Q&A.
Question: I ran into the wild Edward Furlong at IHOP in Hollywood and, when I asked what was next, he said, "Some CSI, and then maybe the Star Wars TV series, man." Is that right?
Ausiello: The CSI part is right - he'll guest star in CSI:NY's third episode - but that's the first I'm hearing about him possibly starring in the small-screen Star Wars.
There is still no word yet on whether or not Edward Furlong is going to be on the new Star Wars show, we will certainly post more information on it as it comes in.

Josh from MTV.com sent us this heads up on an interview they posted with George Lucas. In it George mentions several new pieces of information in regards to both the animated and live action television shows. Information that we've never heard until now from anyone at the Lucasfilm camp.
"In 2007, Lucas will begin work on a live-action "Star Wars" show set during the 18-year gap between Episodes III and IV. "We haven't started yet; I start that next year," the filmmaker said, adding that he's determined to write an entire first season before shooting begins on the show that will star "background" characters from that time period.
"None of the Skywalker story, none of that stuff is in there," he explained, shooting down any depiction of a young Han Solo acquiring the Millennium Falcon or running with Lando Calrissian. "It's completely different. The animated series has got all the characters in it. The one that comes after, the live-action one, is with people who were in 'Star Wars,' but they're not the main characters."
Lucas said the plot will be steered by characters such as Tie-Fighter or Rebel pilots, most only briefly glimpsed in the six "Star Wars" films."
As fan of TheForce.net Richard Thomas put it, "Sounds like Galactica in the Star wars Universe".

(jag har avslutat Solo-debatten ). Vore rätt trist och o-starwars-mässigt att bara köra rymdstrider och skildra det vardagliga livet ombord på slagskeppen.

Umm... Vad hade Han Solo med det hela att göra, Kermit? Det var ju inte det som Walker sa?
