Rick McCallum talks Star Wars TV Series:
Producer Rick McCallum talks about the planned Star Wars TV series. The live action show, consisting of 100 hour-long episodes, will be based
on minor characters in the Star Wars series:
"It's a definite that we do it - the rest we haven't discussed on any level. It's a spin-off, it doesn't involve any of the key characters. It's a different world unto itself between episodes three (Revenge of the Sith) and Episode IV (A New Hope).
George is thinking maybe we can do a series somewhere between Episode III and IV because that's the longest break in the film series, 20 years. The Death Star takes 20 years to build, so we need to work that out."

She'll be pretty scarred up and gruesome, with some features that make her unique from her modern-day cousin, the Great White. Most of all, she'll be big. Very big."
