He’s planning a live-action Star Wars TV series.

Asked if Darth, Luke, or Han might be making an appearance, Lucas is quoted as saying, “The Skywalkers aren’t in it, and it’s about minor characters,” leading me to wonder if Wedge Antilles is finally going to have his moment in the sun.

Having spent the past few years quietly pretending that the three movies after “Jedi” never happened, I am mildly depressed that Lucas is going to take another crack at mucking up his franchise.
