Star Wars getting spin offs?

Reports are suggesting that Disney are looking to make two spin off films within the Star Wars universe, these two films are going to focus on Han Solo & Boba Fett. The Han Solo film has been said to focus on "on the wisecracking smuggler’s origin story" while Boba Fett's feature is described as "bounty hunter adventure".

Bob Iger said in a recent interview;
"There has been speculation about some stand-alone films that have been in development and I can confirm to you today that in fact we are working on a few stand-alone films... We still plan to make Star Wars 7, 8, 9 roughly over a six-year period of time starting in 2015 but there are going to be a few other films released in that period too."

According to the report the Han Solo film will take place between "Revenge Of The Sith" and "A New Hope", while the Boba Fett film will take place between "The Empire Strikes Back" and "Return Of The Jedi". This would leave the films open the return of some beloved characters that aren't yet dead within the story arc like, Darth Vader.
