LOS ANGELES - The highly anticipated final chapter in the Skywalker film saga will feature a significant role for Princess Leia, the beloved “Star Wars” character played by late actress Carrie Fisher.

“Her role is, I would say, integral,” he added. “This is not just a cosmetic thing where we’re sort of inserting Leia.” In recent films, Leia had risen to general leading the fight against the evil First Order in the galaxy far, far away. Her son is Kylo Ren , the warrior who took over as ruler of the First Order at the end of 2017 film “The Last Jedi.”

Daisy Ridley, who portrays resistance fighter Rey, recorded scenes for “Rise of Skywalker” in which her character interacted with the previously recorded images of Fisher.

She must be leave in peace ...

Do the directors know how truly dumb a lightsaber switchblade is? Way to take an ancient religion and turn it into gang violence.

I loved the story he told about her on the Colbert Show. He says in her book she thanked him for helping her career (or something like that) twice. He only worked with her once until now using her images on the new film. He said it was just like her to do something like that. 😇

John Boyega on if He’ll Do More ‘Star Wars’: ‘You Ain’t Going to Disney Plus Me!’If you know anything about “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker,” it’s that the movie from director J.J. Abrams marks the official conclusion of the three-trilogy Skywalker Saga. But… good for him; Disney obviously doesn't appreciate his talents Eek that’s not a good look. OrangeGrove55 VERY telling.... and an inducement on not only the Walt Disney Company and their product, but it's a tell of what he thinks of his fellow acting peers accepting roles for entertainment projects for the service. Not a great look in all honesty and I like John, a lot.
