Casting Director Says Battlefront 3 is in Development

[luke_c]

When Chris Marazzo (pictured), a casting director, listed on his personal website that he's casted more than 200 projects - "including most recently Star Wars: Battlefront 3 with LucasArts" - he probably didn't have this kind of response in mind.

However, the fan site Battlefront3.net noticed, got in touch with Marazzo, and lo and behold, the guy replied. And confirmed to them that the game is in in development. Here's his quote to BF3.Net:

Thanks for getting in touch. The Original Title was Battlefront 3 but it evolved into Star Wars Empire at War: Forces of Corruption. However Battlefront 3 is also in development. It was by far the most fun and coolest casting I ever worked on.

What's more, the site member who contacted Marazzo said "he may be able to dig me up some Battlefront 3 storyboards, by the end of the week!"

Very interesting indeed. I've emailed a contact with LucasArts to apprise them of this rumor and ask if they want to comment. Anything they say that's updateable will go back here.

Like I told Guild in the other news thread just before this one, we've known Battlefront 3 has been in development for awhile now. It's just the original studio went under so it was moved to a mystery unknown one, and it's just caused a lot of confusion thus why it's taking so damn long.

Well, as long as it's getting developed.

Odds are this will be for the 360. I wouldn't be surprised if my brother gets it, since he did really enjoy Battlefront II.

It won't be a exclusive if that's what you mean, It'll most likely be on PS3, 360 and possibly PC.

I'm still waiting for that Rogue Squadron remake.

Though I'm glad to hear that Battlefront 3 is still greenlit.

Oh no.

It's a class-based third person shooter. You play as clone troopers who can switch from class to class, kinda like Team Fortress. You can also, depending on your score, become a Hero (Yoda, Obi-Wan, good Anakin, etc) or Villain (Darth Maul, Darth Vader, Boba Fett, etc) for a limited time. It's a great game, I suggest you buy it if you have a Xbox around (I don't know if it works on 360's). It should be damn cheap anyway.

They added Battlefront 2 to Steam not too long ago. I highly recommend checking that out if you can.
