George Lucas was quite heavily involved in the recent "The Clone Wars"
animated movie and follow-on TV series ... more involved than in the
previous series made by the "Samuri Jack" people. I though he wrote / helped
write the storylines too, and for the up-coming live action TV series.

There is a "Force Unleashed" novel, but I doubt there wil be a movie.
