Carrie Fisher To Appear In Next Two Star Wars Films

After Carrie Fisher passed away after filming her scenes for Star Wars: The Last Jedi, the world wept.  We lost a wonderful person and an incredible actress.  As time passed by, people started asking what her role would be in the upcoming films.  Now we have the answer.


Todd Fisher, Carrie's brother, recently sat down with the New York Times and said that he and Billie Lourd, Carrie's daughter, gave Disney permission to use Carrie Fisher in Episode IX.  He said:


"Both of us were like, 'Yes, how do you take her out of it?' And the answer is you don't.  She's as much a part of it as anything and I think her presence now is even more powerful than it was, like Obi Wan – when the saber cuts him down he becomes more powerful.  I feel like that's what's happened with Carrie. I think the legacy should continue."


In the article, they said that instead of going the CGI route, they're going to be using scenes shot for The Last Jedi in the Episode IX movie.  How these scenes could be made for use in the last chapter of this trilogy remains to be seen, but it is refreshing that we won't get the creepy look that the CGI characters had that they used in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
