Carrie Fisher was again asked at the Calgary Comic Expo this weekend whether she will make an appearance in Star Wars: Episode VII as Princess Leia. Her response was an interesting one.
According to the Calgary Herald, she said the following:
Yes, Carrie Fisher confirmed to a rapt audience at the BMO Centre Saturday afternoon that she will in fact be reprising her most famous role of Princess Leia in a new series of Star Wars films, which will be produced by Disney. She was the first of the original cast members to announce her participation back in March, although apparently jumped the gun. Her publicist later said she was joking and that nothing had been confirmed.
However, it seems to be a done deal now. But for fans looking for a sneak-peek of what to expect in the new film, Fisher didnt offer many juicy details.
I like being bought by Disney, because they never wanted to buy me before, she said during a talk at the Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo. Im glad they are doing a new movie because they are sending a trainer to my house so I can get in really good shape. So Im really eating a lot of sugar in advance, as you can see. By the time I really get down to it I will have eaten everything.
Star Wars: Episode VII is scheduled to hit theaters in the summer of 2015.
