I beg to differ. The trilogy by Timothy Zahn, “Heir to the Empire,” was fabulous. Too bad that’s not the trilogy they are making. It was riveting.

agreed. The Heir to the Empire trilogy would make a fabulous story for 7, 8 and 9.

Less work for the writers—adapting existing material as opposed to writing/rewriting a script.

Guaranteed increased income from fans who have been reading the books for the past 20 years:

Heir to the Empire
Dark Force Rising
The Last Command

I’m surprirsed Disney didn’t just pay Zahn whatever he was asking for movie rights. It’s a win-win scenario for them.
