    May The Force Be On Telly

    100 EPISODES TO END STAR WARS
    By Caroline Hedley

    STAR Wars is to be turned into a TV series after creator George Lucas agreed to complete his epic sci-fi fantasy.

    The 100 episodes will fill in the missing years between 2005 prequel Episode III Revenge of the Sith and original 1977 movie Episode IV Star Wars. It will spark a multi-million pound bidding war between the BBC and ITV.

    Series producer Rick McCullum confirmed the TV version would go ahead.

    Speaking at the Empire Film Awards in London he said: "We're very excited - we just got confirmation George Lucas has committed himself to writing the Star Wars TV series. I guess this is the news all fans have been waiting to hear."

    The movies are among the most popular ever made and tell the story of the descent into evil of Jedi knight Anakin Skywalker and his redemption by son Luke.

    The first movie, Episode IV, has so far grossed £443million. It was followed by Episode V, The Empire Strikes Back and VI, Return of the Jedi.

    I was right. The force is telling me that there's something more to expect from Lucas after Episode III.

    I am excited about the series

      I dont know of they will have the budget worthy of what the movies have been. I fear another spinoff like the startreck deep space nine.

            How are they going to appear YOUNGER 30 years later? Besides right now Luke and Leia are babies, Han Solo is maybe a teen-ager at most. Probally will focus on the fall of the republic and the deaths of the few remaining jedi out there. Maybe chewbacca and Yoda make a cameo or two
