The TV series is in development and is actually set to take place between Revenge of the Sith and New Hope. Because that's a 30 odd year gap.
We could only WISH they'd do something set after ROTJ. Thrawn Trilogy? That'd be great on the big screen.
Anyway, i've heard of a fan movie before, a few years ago in fact. Lucas will never acknowledge them as canon, same as the novels. But both these fan movies and the novels always make an effort to tie into the movies.
Go figure huh?
