I'm sure it was in the works for a while. At the very least Lucasfilm had a pretty strong longstanding relationship with Disney. Lucas had talked about retiring before and also doing more experimental indy films. He doesn't seem to have an interest in directing anymore. He didn't even direct Red Tails.
I mean, does it really matter if the prequels in 3D under-perform or not? They are just 3D re-releases, not sure if you should expect like $200 million from them. I mean Titanic was pretty beloved for its time and won 11 Academy Awards.
I was going to make a joke about your 'Experimental Indy' films comment but I'll hold back! :0
