George Lucas' Biographer Spills Possible Details On STAR WARS: EPISODE VII And Beyond
Dale Pollock, the author of an unauthorized George Lucas biography, has revealed some possible details about Lucas' outline for the next three Star Wars movies, claiming that they focus on a 'Luke Skywalker' in his 40s and that an outline exists for a further three films.
Take this with a pinch of salt. Dave Pollock once wrote an unauthorized George Lucas biography ("Skywalking: The Life And Films Of George Lucas") and despite interviewing the filmmaker over 80 times, Lucas was not a fan of the book and the two have no sort of relationship these days. It's perfectly plausible that Pollock is now doing little more than attention seeking, and despite claiming that he signed a confidentiality agreement, he has revealed the following details about Lucas' outlines for another SIX Star Wars movies.
The stories for the next trilogy will be "the most exciting" in the series, the biographer told The Wrap earlier today. "It was originally a 12-part saga. The three most exciting stories were 7, 8 and 9. They had propulsive action, really interesting new worlds, new characters. I remember thinking, 'I want to see these 3 movies.'" The series will apparently feature a Luke Skywalker in his 30s and 40s, making it unlikely that the 61 year old Mark Hamill will return. So, what if Disney decide not to use Lucas' outline? "Writers will absolutely take his outline. That’s in part what Disney bought." What do you guys make of these claims?
