We’ve gotten a lot of news about the upcoming “Star Wars: Clone Wars” animated series, but almost nothing about the live-action series. Collider Entertainment has exclusive (possibly only rumor) detail about the upcoming series.

I’m also told there is a difference between the animated show and the live-action one. What I’m hearing is they are really trying to make Star Wars cool again. To do this, both shows are going to appeal to two different audiences. The animated show is definitely geared for kids, with the hope that adults will tune in. But, the live-action show is the one that us grownups are going to care about.

Go over to see the full description. If this is true, it is very encouraging. I was a huge Star Wars fan for 22 years, before the dark times…before the prequels. At heart I still love the saga, and would love more than anything for Lucas to “make Star Wars cool again”.

AintItCool seems to think there is validity to the rumor. What do you think?
