dont think lucas arts are planning on movies but, how old is your lad, if you want to get him into reading there are loads of follow up books, so you can tell him that lea and han solo get married and have kids, luke marries someone called jade who was once sent to kill him and he has kids (1 turns out bad for a while) and luke starts a jedi academy

as a side note my youngest had a light sabre a couple of years ago, and decided he was "using the force" on my then 15 year old, he broke his finger from one whack that led to the 15 year old requiring surgery.....go figure thought they were toys, needless to say they were banned after that

jacky dont worry about it love, Reece is nearly 11 and is still into star wars, he has all 6 dvds too, and 2 light sabres and various models of the characters, star wars will be around forever, its a timeless classic

no jacky there arent going to be anymore star wars films...they where actually made backwards and the last film tells the story of how it first began then 5 followed on from that then 4 then 3 then 2 and finally the first

watch them from the sixth to the first then you'll understand

Nah there are not going to be any more films - though 2 new TV shows are being made, so that should keep your son happy. Though I think the first one isn't out till at least next year, so a bit of a wait yet.
