For a long time, George Lucas was in development on a live action Star Wars television series, that ultimately came to nothing when he sold his company to Disney.

But Disney has been busy announcing new Star Wars projects, including a trilogy of new films. And we now learn that there’s also going to be a television series too, that’s likely to launch in 2019.
