By the time he’d finished the prequels in 2006, Lucas seemed utterly opposed to returning to the franchise. The stresses of conceiving and making the Star Wars films might be why, over the past 37 years, Lucas’ statements about prequels and sequels have repeatedly changed. Whether he was writing the scripts with Lawrence Kasdan, advising director Richard Marquand over just how Carrie Fisher should stand while dressed in her Boushh disguise in Return Of The Jedi, or sitting in with the effects wizards at ILM and poring over every action sequence, Lucas kept a constant handle on how the Star Wars cinematic universe expanded over each film. George Lucas handed the directorial reins over to other directors for The Empire Strikes Back and Return Of The Jedi, yet he remained closely – perhaps even obsessively – involved in the finer details of story and production from beginning to end.
