If you didn’t manage to get your hands on the ‘galactic’ tickets for the showing all 6 Star Wars films back-to-back (including premiere of the final film) in Leicester Square, UK, never fear – ‘Star Wars: The TV Series’ has been announced by George Lucas.
Animated show Clone Wars, currently broadcast as three-minute episodes, will become "a 3D animated" series of 30-minute shows. It would be followed by a live-action series featuring characters from the six Star Wars movies, Lucas said:
"We’re probably not going to start that for about a year, like on The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles, we want to write all the stories for the entire first season all at once. I’m going to get it started, and hire the show runners and all of that, then I’ll probably step away."
Meanwhile, The Empire Strikes Back has been named the favourite Star Wars movie in a poll of more than 40,000 readers of film magazine Empire.
Han Solo was voted the favourite hero, Chewbacca was top alien and X-wing pilot Wedge Antilles was favourite minor character.
