The Official Site has an interview with the upcoming “Star Wars: The Clone Wars” creators George Lucas and Dave Filoni. Here’s an excerpt from their Clone Wars discussion:

“How did the idea of an animated Star Wars movie come about?

George Lucas: The interesting thing about the Clone Wars is that in the normal course of the six Star WarsThe Clone Wars was intriguing to me because it really allows us to tell other stories, show other Jedi, introduce new characters and even tell stories about the clones themselves. Some of them have very interesting stories. It allows us to broaden the canvas of what Star Wars is about.

Dave Filoni: One of the things that has always surprised me is how many stories there are to tell in what seems like a small amount of time. The period between Episodes II and III was only about three years. But we can tell so many new stories and meet new characters and go new places — places I never imagined we could.”
