George Lucas has begun work on two new TV series in his Star Wars world. One is live-action and the other animated.
The half-hour cartoon series takes place between the events depicted in the Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith films.
The live-action TV series will take place in the Star Wars universe but will not feature the Skywalker family, as had previously been suggested.
Oddly enough, the programs are a hard sell to U.S. television moguls.
Lucas, who joked the series would analyse "the life of robots", said the US TV networks were "having a hard time" comprehending his vision.
"They're saying, 'This doesn't fit into our little square boxes.' And I say, 'Well, yeah, but it's Star Wars."
"But this goes up to 11!"
