The 56-year-old actress made the revelation after Palm Beach Illustrated asked her about playing Princess Leia again in the upcoming J.J. Abrams-directed “Star Wars” movie.
“Can you confirm whether you’ll reprise the role of Princess Leia?” she was asked by the magazine. “Yes,” the actress said.
When
asked what the rebellion’s fearless heroine would be like today, Carrie
explained that she doubts the character will be facing off against Sith
Lords or killing Hutt crime bosses on Tatooine (while wearing a slave
bikini).
“Elderly. She’s in an
intergalactic old folks’ home,” she joked. “I just think she would be
just like she was before, only slower and less inclined to be up for the
big battle.”
Carrie’s news comes on the heels of a report that Harrison Ford will reprise his Han Solo role.
“Star Wars: Episode VII” has a tentative release date of 2015.
