Star Wars Could Return to Theaters in 2008

Since Hasbro has the Star Wars license for making action figures and such it’s no surprise to know they will be making toys based on the upcoming Clone Wars animated series, but during the Hasbro Fall 2007 Analyst Event the company’s COO revealed that Lucasfilm plans to release the series pilot episode in theaters on August 8 2008. Now that I didn’t know.

When asked about this story, a Lucasfilm representative said they are looking at several exciting ways to promote the new Clone Wars TV series, but they have not made any decisions yet.

So why would Hasbro not only say they’re releasing it on theaters, but also give a specific date? Did Hasbro jump the gun or are they full of Bantha poodoo? We’ll know soon enough as more information becomes available.
