From MTV.com: "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."
I wonder if they need someone to play young Jek Porkins... I'm no River Phoenix, but you never know...

Maybe we'll get a chance to be extras or something. That'd be cool. |

This is all we've found out about it.
I think that's for the animated Clone Wars era series, there's also talk about a live-action series that could feature stories about background characters from both Rebel and Imperial pilots. |

Yes, there are two shows. One is the one-hour live-action show set for the 2008 (last I heard) television season. And the other is the half-hour, 3-D animated series that Dave Filoni (formerly of Avatar on Nickelodeon) is heading up. LucasFilm hired him away from Nick specifically for the animated series.
I freely admit I am an insufferable know-it-all.  |
