Attack of the Clones Coming to Theaters

It turns out that George Lucas' all-CGI TV series, Attack of the Clones, will actually be a full-length motion picture, set for release on August 15th.

We reported last year that Lucas was shopping the idea to execs as a TV show, but that it was not as ambitious a project as a live-action series. While I read the news about the movie a while back, I waited to post on it until I'd heard more because of the confusion.

It turns out the movie is actually being released to kick-off the series, which will air on both TNT and Cartoon Network (both Turner stations) this fall. The events in the movie and series take place between those that occurred in Revenge of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. You can check out some preview-type features on the website.

The live-action series is apparently in pre-production.
