Rumor: A Darth Maul Spin-Off Movie With Obi-Wan & Young Luke?

Another rumor from Comic Book News, the same source that gave us the Palpatine disciple rumor from a few weeks ago.

Our DC Entertainment source has just given us a few tidbits on a possible new Star Wars spin-off movie.

This time, the news is said to involve a Star Wars spin-off movie taking place between Episode III and IV.
Our source notes that the Lucasfilm friend who provided the information said the idea is being tossed around.

• Set between Star Wars Episode III and Episode IV.

• Said to feature Ewan McGregor reprising the role of Obi-Wan Kenobi in his exile on Tatooine.

• The villain? Darth Maul hunting down his nemesis with a possible plot point involving a 5-year-old Luke Skywalker somehow tied into the story possibly as bait for Obi-Wan.

Take this with a huge grain of salt. Still it is something to chew about.
