( 4UMF NEWS ) Disney Buys George Lucas For $4 Billion:
If George Lucas wasn’t rich before, he sure as hell is now because Disney just bought his movie company Lucasfilm Ltd. for $4.05 billion and has already announced a new Star Wars movie!!!
Lucas said in a statement, “It’s now time for me to pass ‘Star Wars’ on to a new generation of filmmakers.” According to Disney, “Star Wars: Episode 7″ is slated for release in 2015.
Lucas will be a “creative consultant” on all new “Star Wars” films.
It’s pretty crazy considering Lucas said he would never make another Star Wars movie telling the New York Times, “Why would I make any more, when everybody yells at you all the time and says what a terrible person you are?”
