What if you’re a teenage super hero? Are you ready to join the ranks of the great heroes and prove you’re worthy of the Justice League?

George Lucas sees action in new episode of Star Wars: The Clone Wars
George Lucas appeared for a moment as a background character in Star Wars: Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, playing Papanoida, and now the character is getting the animated treatment on this weekend’s Star Wars: The Clone Wars “Sphere of Influence.”
“My appearance in Episode III was just for fun. Mostly, I did it for my kids,” says Lucas. “I was wrapping the series, and I’d never been on-screen in a Star Wars film, even though I’d been making them for decades. With The Clone Wars, I get the best of both worlds, because I get a starring role but don’t have to do any acting or wear any blue make-up.”
The episode will feature Papanoida going deep into Coruscant and getting into a few action sequences.
LucasFilm sent Major Spoilers a clip of the character in action, that you can see after the jump.
