George Lucas has reportedly checked on the availability of Australian actor Matthew Newton to see if he's free to appear in a proposed Star Wars television series, according to the Oz Sunday Herald Sun newspaper. Lucas first met Newton a few years ago when the actor (Queen of the Damned) tested for the role of Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars: Episode II—Attack of the Clones, the newspaper reported.

It's believed that Newton was Lucas' second choice for the part of the man who would become Darth Vader; he was even flown to stay at Skywalker Ranch in Northern California for a test.

Blond-haired newton Newton, 28, is no doubt being considered for a leading hero role in the series, believed to be centering on all-new characters, the paper reported.
