Lucasfilm To Produce Star Wars Live-action TV Series

The six episodes of the Star Wars movie franchise will be expanded
with at least 100 television episodes, Lucasfilm producer Rick
McCallum has told BBC Radio 1. In an interview, McCallum said that the
live-action TV series is currently being developed and that it will be
set in the period between Revenge of the Sith and the first Star Wars
film, now called A New Hope. "Hopefully if we can make it work and
everybody's excited and watches it, we will keep on going," McCallum
said.


Hmm.. I dunno.. the tv series would be cool (if GL hires some decent
writers) but I'm wondering about the timeline, I mean, what can they
really have to fill up the period that we don't already see coming? I
mean, the only stuff that really happened during that time (IIRC) is
Darth Vader going around killing all the Jedi and Obi-Wan becoming a
hermit.

I mean, seriously, who's gonna turn in for the "watch Darth Vader kill
someone else after a valiant fight" of the week show?

Just a thought...

There's actually two TV shows coming.

One is a computer animated show based during the Clone Wars. Work has
already started on this one, so it should debut on TV (in America
anyway) either late this year or early next year. This one sounds a
little like the Starship Troopers: Roughnecks animated show.

The second one is the one Rick McCallum is talking about above. It's a
live-action show set between Episode III and Episode IV, *BUT* it's not
about any of the main movie characters and will not have any of them in
it (except perhaps an occasional guest star role). This one is planned
to begin work next year. There's another quote where he talks about
having some bounty hunters, so the show may be about hunting down the
remaining Jedi, or it may be about Boba Fett adventures, or it may be
about something else entirely. He also says it will be "darker" and
more "character based", whatever that really means.

We'll have to wait and see if these are any good ... hopefully they
learnt something from the awful Holiday Special fiasco and won't have
drug-induced musical numbers and hours of Wookiee grunts. :-\

In any case, I agree with the original poster: the period between ROTS
and ANH is a bad choice for a 100-episode show. Personally, I have no
interest in Bobba Fett's "adventures" for example. If the show were at
least about the life of a young Han Solo (which is not case), then
perhaps I would consider watching it. Alternatively, I'd suggest the
writers to show the beginnings of the Rebel Alliance following for
example a group of guerrila-like rebels being chased by the Empire (at
least, that would give the show the popular "good guys" vs "bad guys"
flavor, even though it would lack the Jedi x Sith dichotomy).

And some people would have no interest in watching a Han SOlo TV show,
etc. It's all just personal opinion. :-)

We have no idea what the show is about at the moment - only that it's
NOT about the main movie characters and is set between the two
Trilogies ... and is reportedly from George Lucas' own mouth being done
in 3D and require silly glasses to watch ... but hopefully that's just
an April Fools joke. :-\

I think this is much more likely considering the announcement of Daniels as
C3PO. Even if, as Anybody suggested, he is a narrator he would be telling
the story of the early Alliance rather than of early Fett adventures.

This time period is, IMO, the best for a series. It is relatively untouched
by other writers at this point and is the best time period to capitalize on
the success and popularity of ROTS.

If AD is in it, then could it be about the adventures of Captain Antilles,
C3PO's Former Master ?

Someone else suggested that too, and it is a possibility since Antilles
is an almost non-existant character in the movies. We'll have to wait
for more details to be released before we'll know for sure what the
live-action show is about ... since work doesn't begin until next year
they may not even have fully decided that themselves yet.

yea, Antilles could have a mission to seek out new life and new
civilizations...oh wait thats been done already
maybe he could lead a fleet looking for the long lost original home
planet...ditto
or the show could be about the early years of Han Solo, how he got his

Nope, it's been revealed that the show will follow the Tantive IV after
it got lost in the Delta Quadrant. ;-)
