Carrie Fisher Will Be In Star Wars Episode IX

Carrie Fisher Will Be In Star Wars Episode IX

, , , 0

As anyone who’s seen The Last Jedi knows, Carrie Fisher was set to play a major role throughout the entire trilogy as General Leia. Unfortunately, she passed from this world after shooting Episode XIII. This would mean Episode IX would have to now work her death into the plot, right? Maybe not. StarWars.com released its full cast list for the upcoming movie, and Carrie Fisher is listed among the cast. How can they do it if they have no new footage to work with? Apparently they have enough OLD footage. Director JJ Abrams says a significant portion of footage Fisher filmed for Episode VII can be repurposed for Episode IX. “We desperately loved Carrie Fisher….Finding a truly satisfying conclusion to the Skywalker saga without her eluded us. We were never going to recast, or use a CG character. With the support and blessing from her daughter, Billie, we have found a way to honor Carrie’s legacy and role as Leia in Episode IX by using unseen footage we shot together

Carrie Fisher was royalty both on and off screen. She was the progeny of two 1950’s celebrities and one of the most successful actresses of the time period: her mother, Debbie Reynolds. Debbie passed today hours after her daughter’s own death. Reynolds was one of the last living stars of Old Hollywood. She was into gymnastics as a teenager and entered a beauty pageant in hopes of getting a free lunch. Instead she was discovered on the stage and hired by MGM, making her debut in Three Little Words before becoming a superstar with 1952’s Singin’ in the Rain. Despite her athletic background, Reynolds found the work wearying, remarking later that “The two hardest things I ever did in my life are childbirth and Singin’ In The Rain’.” That child was daughter Carrie, which she sired with the help of then-husband, singing sensation Eddie Fisher. Unfortunately this is where things take a bad turn: Fisher left Reynolds not long after to become Elizabeth Taylor’s fourth husband, making Reynolds a single

It was announced on December 27th, 2016 that Carrie Fisher had passed away. Whether they loved her work in the Star Wars movies or her talents as a writer, many have mourned and will continue to mourn her passing. Many have celebrated her memory, including our very own Peter Paltridge, who penned a lovely tribute. Although Carrie and so many other talents have passed away, there are many who hold the opinion that since we’ve never met these celebrities, and were not related to them or friends with them, that’s it’s foolish to mourn their passing. The general idea that these people hold is that we should only mourn the people we know in person. I don’t know if that’s always something that it would be preferable to do. If you had an abusive home life, trouble at school or pain at work, and you turned to pop culture as a form of escape, you would probably be mourning the passing of the talents who helped you escape your problems

If you’re reading this, you likely know by now Carrie Fisher did not win her battle against the severe heart attack she suffered on that plane earlier this week. Unfortunately there are several different kinds of cardiac episodes ranging in severity, and the odds of surviving that kind of episode she had lie around 8 to 20 percent depending on how soon medical care can be administered. However, this is Fisher we’re talking about and she hung on longer than victims usually do. The daughter of actress Debbie Reynolds, Fisher was catapulted into stardom herself at just 19 years old when she was cast as Princess Leia in the Star Wars trilogy. She started acting as early as 15 in the Broadway show Irene and first appeared in the movies back in 1975, opposite Warren Beatty in Shampoo. More recently she voiced Peter’s boss on Family Guy and played a role in the Amazon original series Catastrophe, but her biggest presence as of late was as GENERAL Leia in Star
