Carrie Fisher Says She’s Back to Play Leia

FisherC-Photo(HighResHEADSHOT2012)In a chat with Palm Beach Illustrated, Carrie Fisher says she’s back to play Leia. When asked point blank by the publication, Fisher responded with a simple “Yes.” Then Palm Beach Illustrated opened the proverbial can of works by asking Fisher what she thinks Leia’s up to these days:

What do you think Princess Leia is like today?

Elderly. She’s in an intergalactic old folks’ home [laughs].

I just think she would be just like she was before, only slower and less inclined to be up for the big battle.

And still wearing the bagel buns?

The bagel buns and the bikini, because probably she has sundowners syndrome. At sundown, she thinks that she’s 20-something. And she puts it on and gets institutionalized.

It’s smart to remember that this is not official confirmation. Given that this is Carrie Fisher and you can never quite be sure when she’s being serious or pulling a fast one on the interviewer, take this with a smaller grain of salt than usual. In this case, there’s probably more legs to this rumor than usual, but until Lucasfilm or Disney says something, it’s not fully confirmed.
