George Lucas

George Lucas produced the greatest Christmas special of all time, The Star Wars Holiday Special. Since then, he has produced and directed numerous films, all of which were critically panned box-office failures. There is no word on if or when he might resurface with a new holiday special.
At the behest of his good friend director Steven Spielberg, Lucas created a female clone of actor Haley Joel Osmond. Lucas dubbed this clone Dakota Fanning.
Lucas used his new cloning technology to start-up a biotech firm in southern California: Industrial Light and Magic.
