George Lucas has confirmed that Han Solo will not be appearing in the Star Wars live-action television series that Lucas is producing indepenantly.
Lucas also reiterated that while the animated The Clone Wars series stars familiar characters from the movie, "The live-action has nobody there, because it's after Episode III, so everybody's dead, basically, or hiding somewhere. You hear about the Emperor, just like you do in Episode IV, but it's mostly about a whole different world. I mean, there are a million stories in the big city — you've only seen one of them. [Laughs]."
Lucas has got the series plotted out at approxiamately 100 episodes. This should be very exciting for fans of the universe. I am still keeping my fingers crossed for the appearance of Boba Fett.
