Otherwise, i don't see it happening with new characters only because of the novels and graphic novels they have out. it wouldn't fit.

You say that like LFL has any respect for the writers of the EU. This new movie alone has completely destroyed the continuity of the Clone Wars as set out in the novels and comics. This is my one fear concerning the inevitable sequel trilogy (trust me, once Lucas is dead, he will have no more power over the company's action; then we will know the real meaning of the phrase "milking it for all its worth"): it will likely cause such huge errors in the story that they will have no choice but to erase all the post-RotJ material (i.e., the vast majority of the good ones) from the timeline.
