George Lucas spoke to AP about some of the upcoming “Star Wars” projects he has going on, including converting the six “Star Wars” film using new 3-D technology.
First, he has the animated “Star Wars: Clone Wars” appearing in theaters on August 15th, which will be followed in the fall by an animated TV series by the same name, airing on Cartoon Network and TNT. Then, Lucas plans a live-action “Star Wars” TV series. And finaly, all that will lead us to the 3-D movies.
“We’re trying to do that,” Lucas said of his plan to convert the six installments. “We worked on some, with a company that was developing the technology a few years ago to convert films into 3-D, we worked with them. But the system works great. It’s just not very practical. So what we’ve been working on since then is to develop a sort of practical way to do it. And we will get there. It’s just a technological challenge.”
So there you have it, expect “Star Wars” to appear on TV and the big screen for the next decade, after which Lucas will probably begin remaking his films.
