STAR WARS television series update from George Lucas

It goes without saying that the STAR WARS series is one of the biggest franchises in existence. The films changed the way that special effects work, and told one of the grandest stories in film. Not only that, but they are generally universally loved and generations of fans have obsessed over them for years.

There has been talk of a live-action series for years, and in 2009 creator George Lucas admitted that the series would take place in between the third and fourth film. Now we have an update from Lucas himself. Apparently, a lot more progress has been made than we ever expected, unfortunately it doesn’t seem like we are any closer to the series being released.

Okay, I’ve admitted it many times before – I am not a fan of Channing Tatum. That being said, there are certain roles that do fit him really well, they just aren’t the route he usually takes. Now he is in negotiations to take up a lead role in the 21 JUMP STREET film adaptation, which sounds like a really good choice for him.

Currently, we are unsure of the role what Tatum would be playing, but we are led to believe that he would be taking up the role of Schmidt. Schmidt is one of the undercover guys who goes to the high school due to how young he looks. Continue reading “Channing Tatum in negotiations for 21 JUMP STREET lead” →
