Fisher, of course, reprised the role in 2015’s The Force Awakens and will appear once more in this December’s Star Wars: Episode VIII.
Additionally, it was said Leia was supposed to return for Star Wars: Episode IX, so how Lucasfilm handles this situation has been a topic of great curiosity.
As the Star Wars community continues to mourn the passing of franchise icon Carrie Fisher, many fans are wondering what the future has in store for the actress’ famous character, General Leia Organa.
THR theorizes that the cameras will roll in early 2018 for a December 2019 release (a schedule similar to Episode VIII), but that is not official.
