Carrie Fisher Will Be Returning As Princess Leia
One of the things about which people have been most interested since the announcement of the Disney/Lucasfilm merger, and the ensuing new 'Star Wars' films on the horizon, was who from the original cast might turn up. Rumors began to spread, as one by one the tent pole stars of the progenitor trilogy expressed their desire to return to a galaxy far far away. Today however, it appears we have our first confirmed return of a franchise veteran. In a recent interview, Carrie Fisher was asked point blank whether she would be reprising her role as Princess Leia as part of the new wave of films. Her answer was short and definitive: "yes." At this point, Harrison Ford and Mark Hamill, Han Solo and Luke Skywalker respectively, have not been confirmed. J.J. Abrams' 'Star Wars: Episode VII' is due in theaters sometime in 2015.
So Leia is coming back, eh? But where? The most logical assumption would be that she will be returning for 'Episode VII,' but that's not necessarily the case. We know that Disney is planning the release of several different 'Star Wars' films, including Boba Fett and Han Solo origin stories. It's not too likely that a much older, forgive me Carrie, Princess Leia would appear in a tale about a younger Han Solo, unless it were in a prologue scene perhaps. Similarly, an older Leia would have no business in a Boba Fett origin story. So again, 'Episode VII' is the logical assumption. I'm happy that the legacy of the franchise will be acknowledged in Fisher's appearance, but part of me hopes she doesn't have a prominent role in the film. Seeing how much our beloved characters have aged would be thoroughly depressing. The question now becomes, does this confirmation also suggest that we're on the cusp of Ford and Hamil being locked down as well?
What do you guys think? Are you pleased Carrie Fisher is returning? Do you think Ford and Hamil will also be confirmed soon?

I'm sure most of them would return for a cameo. The idea of a reunion and a few more 0's in their bank account is enough incentive for these guys. It's not like they're super super busy?

And just on Carrie Fisher she looked pretty ok for an older lady after losing 50 pounds on Jenny Craig back in 2011 so just have her do that again. She doesn't have to be in bikini shape obviously, just respected senator weight which means a lil overweight is fine.

Nothing has been announced but George Lucas just came out today and basically spoiled that all three of them will be coming back, and then backtracked and said well don't want to announce that (because that's now Disney's job) so he didn't say whether negotiations were successful or not but let's assume they are especially since all three seem to be kind of getting less fat. What this does reveal though and something that was questioned on LEOG is how involved is George Lucas still, and that kind of shows that he's still around and will probably be on set (so J.J. can use him for reference as the Star Wars nut he is). Which all in all is a good idea because George Lucas has good ideas they just need to be filtered, I have no problem with him being involved in Star Wars until he dies now that his ideas are filtered between the boxes of "great idea George, let's do that" and "That's fucking stupid, but we'll just tell him we don't think that would work".

@Batfan175
They're just coming back out and saying it was a joke to cover their asses. I bet Carrie Fisher blew the lid on the whole thing with this story, and they're just trying to mask the problem. I mean, how is "Yes" a joke?

Well!! she dropped her English accent in Star Wars ep 4, so I think in the next lot of films it will be some generic Turkish accent
