Star Wars live-action TV series
The Star Wars live-action TV series is a science fiction television series currently set to debut in 2009. It will be an Expanded Universe production set in the fictional Star Wars galaxy. The project, which has yet to be given an official title, was first announced on April 23, 2005 by Star Wars creator George Lucas at the Celebration III fan convention in Indianapolis, Indiana, following the completion and success of his Star Wars films that same year.

According to official reports, the series will be set sometime during the 19-year timespan between the films Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope (19 BBY-0 BBY). It will focus primarily on minor characters of the Star Wars galaxy, rather than the main ones seen prominently in the films. These minor characters will be both from the films and the Expanded Universe. However, Lucas has stated that some of the main characters may make cameo appearances. Rick McCallum has commented that "George envisions somewhere like 100 hours between Episode III and Episode IV", which suggests that the hour-long series will run for several years. According to USA Today, Lucas has described the show as "bare-bones" and "action-heavy."

Lucas hopes to use the show as a template for how he will do his "more personal films" that he hopes to create. The series is expected to begin shooting in 2008, for a 2009 release. Lucas is currently in the process of planning out the character and story arcs, which he has been working on over the last several months.
