New Star Wars animation coming?

[Your Name]

Disney have basically shutdown LucasAnimation (reportedly sending everyone
home) and closed LucasArts ... but there is a new hope. ;-)

Apparently The Clone Wars Supervising Director Dave Filoni has given an
interview where he says he is in talks for a new animated Star Wars show.
This is from IGN.com ...

Filoni goes on to explain, �At this point, I am involved in
some early production discussions and exploration of what
we�ll be doing with Star Wars animation in the future, which
is really exciting for me and I have some friendly faces
around me, of course, that are helping me on the project. So
it�s a transition time, as I�ve said before, and I think it
will lead to an exciting time and hopefully I�ll see things
grow again.�

Filoni couldn't say much more about it, including what the
show will focus on or when we'd see it. But if you're a fan
of The Clone Wars, as I am, this is great news. Filoni came
to Lucasfilm a huge Star Wars fan and his love for the
series is obvious watching Star Wars: The Clone Wars, which
has delivered some terrific Star Wars stories through the
years. It's great to learn he will still be able to play in
that world moving forward.

And yeah, I'll say it... It also has me hoping that, if
this series takes place after The Clone Wars in the
timeline, Filoni could use it to at least touch upon
plotlines and characters he established in that series.
