Star Wars: The Clone Wars has finally started airing its long-awaited seventh and final season. Dave Filoni, the show's executive producer, recently spoke about the show and confirmed he is still in touch with George Lucas.
Filoni spoke to IndieWire, confirming that although the series has evolved since George Lucas helmed the franchise, Filoni still tries to keep his Star Wars projects in line with Lucas' original vision."We still talk and if I'm stuck I will bug George for ideas, because he is the canon," He said.
Filoni continued, "He created it and I respect that. One of my many jobs and purposes is to keep things as intact as to what George laid down as possible. It is for kids -- George would always say that over the years -- but the beauty is that everyone can watch and enjoy it if you get the show right."
Streaming on Disney+, the final season of Star Wars: The Clone Wars stars Matt Lanter as Anakin Skywalker, Ashley Eckstein as Ahsoka Tano, Dee Bradley Baker as Captain Rex and the clone troopers, James Arnold Taylor as Obi-Wan Kenobi, Katee Sackhoff as Bo-Katan, and Sam Witwer as Maul. A new episode arrives each Friday.
