Star Wars Episode 7 News Update: Will Animated Series 'Reclamation' Introduce J.J Abrams' New Film?

After numerous rumors about "Star Wars Episode VII" surfaced the web, pages from a mysterious "Star Wars" project entitled "Reclamation" appeared online.

Bleeding Cool posted six pages from what appears to be an official pitch for a new "Star Wars" animated series that would take place between 'Return of the Jedi' and the upcoming Episode 7.

According to the overview of the animated series the "Star Wars: Reclamation" is a "story designed to introduce the audience to themes and characters pivotal to Episode VII and beyond." The pages also described the broad overview of the show and its cast of characters, which include Leia Organa, Kala Calrissian and a Jedi knight named Sky Bonteri. The plot finds the struggling Republic still dealing witch pockets of resistance from Imperial loyalists fifteen years after the destruction of the second Death Star, but both sides are forced into an uneasy alliance when an army of billions of killer droids emerges from the depths of Coruscant, threatening anyone and everyone.

The web source stated that the show was quietly greenlit in January before being put on hold. However ever since then no word on this project has not been mentioned. As a result the series could be a dead project or a project that never got past the pitch phase.

Rumor also has it that this project could be the new animated series creators of "The Clone Wars" were working on. However no one has made statement on the script pages and therefore it is believed that it could be a very elaborate fake.

Ever since Disney bought Lucasfilms, the company announced they were making spinoffs on various "Star Wars" characters and would make a new trilogy. Casting has not been announced for "Episode VII" but Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill are rumored to appear in the new film.

"Star Wards Episode VII" is slated for a release in 2015.
