Lucas referred to Clone Wars as a pilot. He confirmed that the animated series will continue as a 3D animated half hour version and will be a regular TV series.

Also, he is working on a live action series that spins off from the films that doesn't incude the main characters but is about characters that we already know.

He plans to begin filming in a year. He wants to get all the scripts written for the first season all at once and then go out and shoot them.

Lucas will get it started, hire all the showrunners and then back away from it.

Following this format, there will be multiple directors, multiple writers so we are in for a ride! The future of Star Wars looks bright.

One more thing on the topic Star Wars. The revamping of Star Tours has been on the books for about 6 years and now with the change in management over at Disney, George hopes to have that put into motion sometime soon.

Stay tuned to the IESB for on-the-scene coverage from Celebration III!
