“I’m just starting to work on the scripts now for the live-action TV series. We finished the first
year of Clone Wars, [and] we’re in the middle of working on the second year. I’m finishing the
scripts for the third year. And now I’m working on the scripts for the first year of the live-action
show. [Smiles] So it’s a lot of scripts,” Lucas told Entertainment Weekly. “…What we do in our
TV series is we write the entire first year and finish it as a script. Then we start getting ready
to shoot it, then we start casting, and then we do it. We know where the whole first year is
before we even start to work on it. I mean, I can do that because I’m financing the whole thing.
So I’ve got it pegged out for 100 episodes, and I know exactly what I’m going to do and how I’
m going to do it and what the risks are.” “The live-action TV series probably won’t go on until
around 2010. It’ll take this year just to get through all the scripts and then another year to get
them all shot.”
Lucas confirmed that the series will at least have 100 one-hour episodes (”I’m going to 100
episodes no matter what) and that casting has not yet begun. And the good news, George
Lucas won’t be hands on with this project.
“You know, I’m an executive producer now — I don’t do the day-to-day work. I check in once a
week, maybe, and it’ll be the same thing on the live-action show.”
