Though Lucasfilm and Disney no longer consider the EU canon, it has been stated by representatives of Lucasfilm that content and characters based on Legends works may appear in new Star Wars stories and media.
When Lucasfilm was acquired by Disney, the decision was made to rebrand the Star Wars EU as “Star Wars Legends,” effectively erasing hundreds of stories and characters from Star Wars canon in an effort to streamline the various assorted media. That alternative version is the Star Wars Expanded Universe (EU), which contains hundreds of books, comics and video games that have explored the events that transpired after the inital final film in the saga and everything else in between.
While this will be the first time where many people will learn about what happened after Return of the Jedi, savvy Star Wars fans that have followed the franchise for years have been able to experience an “alternate version” of the events that occurred after Episode VI. The hearts of many filmgoers and Star Wars fans are aflutter with the impending December 2015 release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
