Star Wars 9 is going to address Leia’s absence “in a really beautiful way”, hints Oscar Isaac

It’s an unfortunate elephant in the room, but knowing how 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars Episode 9 is going to deal with General Leia Organa after 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Carrie Fisher’s passing remains high on everyone’s must-know list for the final movie in the trilogy. While we do already know that J.J. Abrams will be using unused footage from 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars: The Force Awakens,🌌 Oscar Isaac has hinted that Fisher’s role in the movie may be pretty understated – but we’ll get an🍸 answer for her absence.

Speaking to , the actor who plays Poe Dameron – who got a hefty slap from Leia in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Star Wars: The Last Jedi – reveals: “The story deals wꦰith [Leia’s reduced role] quite a bit… It’s a strange thing to be on the set and to be speaking of Leia and having Carrie not be﷽ around. There’s definitely some pain in that.”

Even if we might not get as much Leia as we’d possibly 𒅌like, we can be assured of a fine farewell for a beloved actress (and character) that has s⛄hown on our screens for what will be over 40 years come the release of Star Wars 9. Isaac teases that the story “deals with the amazing character that Carrie created in a really beautiful way.”

Whether that’s an off-screen death, or a quiet shuffling in♎to the background – something that could definitely be attributed to Leia’s impromptu trip into the dark reaches of space in The Last Jedi – remains to be seen.

Still, it’s great to hear that Carrie Fisher’s presence will be heavily felt, and she’ll have a considerable impact on a movie that was always meant to give her an emotional send-off anyway. While her rol𝓀e is still somewhat uncl꧃ear, one thing is for certain: There won’t be a dry eye in the house.

There's still a while until Star Wars 9, but fill in the time by keeping tabs on our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming movies list.
