Big Rumor: New Star Wars Trilogy in 2018/2019?

Ok, nobody panic. Stop getting hysterical. I SAID STOP GETTING HYSTERICAL! Ok, we’re cool now. We’re all adults here. We can handle horrifying news. Just Last House on the Left this if you’re feeling scared, ok?

However, IESB is reporting Lucas’ plans for a third Star Wars trilogy, to be set many, many years after the original trilogy, and it will no longer feature the Skywalkers. And it will be in 3D. The idea is that, with the huge amounts of cash Lucasfilm will earn with the original/prequel trilogy’s re-release, he’ll have enough money to do basically anything he wants to.

This is super big. It’s also a rumor, but, as IESB itself points out, they broke the stories of The Avengers being directed by Joss Whedon and Revenge of the Sith’s PG-13 rating. They do seem to have very solid sources, but it is, after all, only a rumor. Keep this one in your hats, though.
