No. George Lucas didn't expect Star Wars to be a big hit at all. But then after Episode 4 received a huge box office, Lucas then decided to expand the storyline.
A New Hope was simply titled Star Wars when it was initially released. It was the original story that George Lucas intended to create. After that he wanted to continue the story with the sequels The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. It was not until some time later that Lucas decided to produce the prequels when the development of CGI allowed him to more fully render his ideas.
George Lucas is the original writer for star wars, he has changed it for good or for bad (most who saw the original say for bad) and wrote the prequels when filming the original.
George Lucas is still alive
If you meant to ask if George Lucas gave Samuel L. Jackson any special accommodations, then yes. According to the bonus material on the complete saga Blu-Ray box set, the only reason why Mace Windu got a purple lightsaber was because when George told Samuel the "regular" lightsaber colors, Samuel asked, "No purple?" and George decided to grant him "his wish."
