The face of Star Wars, Dave Filoni, has received a promotion at Lucasfilm to Chief Creative Officer, giving him creative control over every Star Wars project. If he thought he was busy before, he's going to be infinitely busier in this new role. Where he used to be brought in on a project in the middle of development for advice, now he's going to look at everything before any of it even gets off the ground. George Lucas and, to an extent, Kathleen Kennedy, have been grooming Dave Filoni for this new position since he first found himself at Lucasfilm in 2006.
