What is the basis of the game? Will all the PCs be Jedi or the more classic Jedi, Smuggler, Princess, Wookie, Drioids?
If all Jedi, Savage Worlds + Super Powers Companion works wonderfully. I ran a one-shot based on this (Escape from the Jedi Temple -- some teen Jedi (0XP) had to escape the 501/Anakin's purge) - I really loved the feel of it.
But that indicates the fundemental problem - Jedi are superheros and everyone else is just a hero. Episode IV shows a baby Jedi (Luke) was just as effective as a veteran rogue smuggler (Han). Eps 1-3 (whatever you may think of them) basically rarely showed anyone on the level of a Jedi -- Jango Fett got chopped up pretty quick (he needed environment to help win, even then it was a draw vs. Obi Wan) and Grevious actually had "Jedi Training."
If I were to do a Savage Worlds mixed version (Jedi + others), I would do Jedi with the supers powers at a very low "level" and everyone else starts at something like Veteran. (I've not worked out the "spread" between the base rules and the SPC powers).
