Quick google search (thanks pat man!) shows they killed him in Fate of the Jedi. Is that the EU to which you're referring?
The following has been done, too, but in the film maybe they can have Dark Luke. I love how Mark describes his ideas for ROTJ here:

Interestingly enough JJ is at the table as well. It's a nice video.
I meant killing Luke off mirrors Obi Wan a bit too much. When Lucas originally did it, it was a last minute script change, (which Sir Alec reportedly wasn't too thrilled about) and then he had to create a new Jedi master to train Luke in the sequel.
When I read this I immediately thought of that famous line said by George to Harrison during the filming of ROTJ: "There's no future in dead Han toys" yet I remember owning a ghost Obi Wan action figure growing up. I love George but sometimes he says such stupid things although now I'm glad he made that decision though becaus we'll probably get to see Han get his "heroic sacrifice" scene we've all been waiting for (at least me anyways). In a lot of the interviews and docs Kasden said he was adamant about killing off Han in ROTJ and I bet now he's going to get his wish. It makes so much damn sense and I imagine that Harrison would be thrilled by the idea.
