So far only the "spin off" movies will be prequels. On the drawing board for prequels are Yoda and Boba Fett specific movies.

The story of the new films WILL NOT follow any of the Star Wars novels, tho I wouldn't have minded if the followed the NJO story line with the invasion of the Yuuzhan Vong.... a casualties and losses list that contains almost 365 trillion beings including three big name characters sounds like an epic encounter.

The original cast of Star Wars all but confirmed that they will be onboard for the sequels.
