Belfast to join Star Wars universe as spinoff movie comes to town..

I would love for Lucas to be on board in an advisory position. Hell I would be excited for him to write the story with someone else handling the screenplay. Assuming this is true I wonder if we are wrong in assuming the movie would be set in the 20 year exile. What if the movie is a live action Clone Wars movie?
Ewan has aged wonderfully and can easily be made to look like he did in RotS. Get cameos out of Hayden and Samuel L. Jackson allow Ahsoka to have a brief live action debut, allow Temuera to play all the great clones like Rex. Have the plot focus on Obi Wan leading a small Jedi task force that allows for PT Jedi like Kit Fisto, Ki Adi, or Plo Koon to finally be able to shine in the movies, finally be able to bring Asajj into live action. And think of all the references they could have for the people who watched the show. I might actually prefer a Clone Wars set Obi Wan movie over a Tatooine-exile one.

 

Belfast definitely doesn't make me think of Tatooine, and as I've said, I can't see Obi Wan leaving that place while Luke is there. Everything we've gotten so far points to him staying there for the duration of the time between RotS and ANH.

I was hoping for a story about Obi Wan, Qui Gon, and Satine dodging warlords on Mandalore, and while Lucas gives me hope, Belfast does not, unless this is pre-devastation Mandalore (or they run to some other planet represented by Belfast).

Maybe Clone Wars, but lets do pre-Asokha. Lets actually see Anakin transition from Padawan to Knight.

 

this would be fantastic (esp as my office is close by and I can see the paint hall studios from it) - I imagine it would be for all the indoor sets - though there are some great beaches in northern Ireland that could be used for close up sand dunes - believe it or not a lot of the "exotic" outdoor scenes in game of thrones are also filmed in northern Ireland - amazing what a bright camera filter can do

 

I know it mentions Kenobi in the report. But it also mentions GoT. Could it actually be the 2nd new trilogy they announced, then the producers/writers (whatever they are) that are starting this new trilogy as soon as GoT has finished filming, don't have to move out of the studio?

 

Yeah, I kinda noticed that while all the outlets were quick to say it was the Kenobi film, there's actually no real evidence tying it to Kenobi. It's a good guess though.

 

It would be a crime against humanity if George doesnt write the story for this movie.
