While promoting his new book My Girls: A Lifetime with Carrie and Debbie, Todd Fisher was asked if he knew anything about Leia making any sort of return in Star Wars 9.
With production slated to begin next month on Star Wars 9, there is still very little anyone knows about the project, but Todd Fisher, the brother of late great Star Wars icon Carrie Fisher, hopes his sister’s Leia character is still part of the story somehow.
While LucasFilm hasn’t informed him of their plans as of yet, he thinks Leia should actually return.
There had also been rumors that Meryl Streep would come in to star as Leia, but that, along with practically every other Star Wars rumor has yet to be confirmed.
