The boys and girls from Lucasfilm are in town looking for a few good writers for their upcoming live action TV show.

{sidebar id=1}Reports are that they are in Santa Monica and have been meeting with writers from Battlestar Galactica, Lost and Heroes.

Early reports have indicated that the upcoming TV show will have a commitment of 100 episodes which would guarantee syndication and bankrolled 100% by Uncle George and that all episodes would be shot in Australia. Some reports have indicated that Lucas would consider using Vancouver, if the price is right.

Producer Rick McCallum has said that each episode would be given a budget of around 2 and 4 million dollars and would be catered to the teen/adult fans compared to the Star Wars films that were always catered to the teen and young children.

The proposed TV show will not focus on the Skywalker clan and will take place between Sith and A New Hope. Some rumors have reported that fan favorite Boba Fett may be featured in the TV show.

Stay tuned to the IESB as we continue to bring you the latest Star Wars news.
