I'm not ready to call it 'news', until it's
officially confirmed by Lucasfilm, but, in a recent interview with Carrie Fisher about her participation in the upcoming
Star Wars sequels, and what Leia's role might be:
"...
Disney is going to continue the Star Wars saga, producing movies set to hit theaters starting in 2015. Can you confirm whether you’ll reprise the role of Princess Leia?
Yes.
What do you think Princess Leia is like today?
Elderly. She’s in an intergalactic old folks’ home [laughs].
I just think she would be just like she was before, only slower and less inclined to be up for the big battle...."
With her recent medical issues, here's hoping she's able to participate.
