Lucas moves on after Star Wars

George lucas is going straight back to work after wrapping the last installment of sci-fi franchise Star Wars, to make a movie about World War II fighter pilots.

Lucas this week unveiled Star Wars - Episode III: The Revenge of the Sith, marking an end to the 28 year series - but he is already planning his next big screen adventure, to be called Red Tails.

He says: "(Red Tails is) about African-American fighter pilots during World War II. They were escort fighters and the only fighter unit during the war that never lost a bomber. So they were the best."
