Not if anything to say about it I have!

And not starring Amy Allen as Aayla Secura
There's been lots of speculation around who and what people want to see in the upcoming Star Wars tv-series that George himself is backing.

Something that is reoccuring is the request to see Aayla Secure (the picture for those of you, if there are any at all, that don't know who Aayla Secura is) come back and kicks some Imperial butt in the series that is supposed to take place between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope, which is a gap of 18-19 years which leaves a lot of space for a plot to take place.

The problem? Aayla Secura was gunned down from behind by her own Clone Troopers on Felucia and was kept getting shot at even though she was dead.

The obvious fact that of all the Jedis killed during the Order 66 scene that Aayla is the most dead of them (or Plo Koon, you decide) hasn't stopped people from doing the same thing they did to Darth Maul and insisting that she is alive.

She's not. She's dead. I would even go as far as to say that Lucas put in the Clone Troopers firing at her corpse just to make sure she was dead and that such speculations wouldn't happen again.

Lucas has said that minor characters from Revenge of the Sith would take a more central role in the tv-series. Which ones would that be?

My guess is that Genevieve O'Reilly and Jimmi Smits will come back to reprise their roles as Mon Mothma and Bail Organa and the tv-series will depict the early days of the Rebel Alliance.

Also, Star Wars isn't complete without lightsabers and Jedi and therefore I think that the plot will show the last few Jedi that actually managed to escape Order 66 (there must've been some) fighting for survival against the Imperials and the Rebel struggle to rescue these Jedi and protect them. Which Jedi who survive, I don't know. I'm not a EU-fan. Again, this is only me speculating on the plot, nothing has been said yet

Other people have wanted Vader to be central to the plot and sure, it would be cool but we "know" Vader now. There's is really that much more of his personality that we can be shown and personally, I don't want to see a saber twisting Vader in that suit because it'll just look wrong by the time of A New Hope

The rise of Boba Fett seems also to be something most fans hope for. A plot that maybe shows a young Boba Fett taking revenge by hunting down the last Jedi? Sounds interesting.

I hope that the series shifts a lot, I mean then that maybe season 1 is about the rise of the Rebellion, season 2 about Boba Fett, season 3 about whatever, so it isn't the Rebellion season 1,2,3...

I don't feel that the seasons need to follow any necessary timeline, like that season 2 must be after season 1 but can take place during or even before season 1. The important thing with this tv-series is that it fleshes out the time inbetween Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope. The changing storylines will also keep the show fresh.

These are early days and I'm sure I'll post more on the tv-series when we get to know more.
