The long blogged-about live action TV series based on the Star Wars movies is now in development, George Lucas has disclosed to the Los Angeles Times. "The Skywalkers aren't in it, and it's about minor characters," he told the newspaper. "It has nothing to do with Luke Skywalker or Darth Vader or any of those people. It's completely different. But it's a good idea, and it's going to be a lot of fun to do." The live-action series would be produced in addition to Star Wars: The Clone Wars, a computer-animated series that Lucas is currently producing. Lucas indicated that network execs have thus far not proved receptive to either project. "They are having a hard time," Lucas told the Times. "They're saying, 'This doesn't fit into our little square boxes,' and I say, 'Well, yeah, but it's Star Wars. And Star Wars doesn't fit into that box.'"
