Star Wars Reunion
March 8, 2013 by staff
Star Wars Reunion, Hopes that Star Wars actors Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill will reprise their roles on screen have been raised by the saga’s creator.
Speaking to Bloomsberg Businessweek, George Lucas revealed that the trio had been “in final stages of negotiation” when his Lucasfilm company was sold to Disney last year.
That deal will pave the way for a new Star Wars film, directed by JJ Abrams.
But Lucas would not confirm whether the “negotiation” had been successful.
Lucas’ remarks coincided with an interview with Fisher in which she said she would return to the role of Princess Leia in the new film, due out in 2015.
However, that was swiftly followed by a retraction from a representative, saying the 56-year-old actress had been “joking”.
Both Hamill and Ford are said to be open to the possibility of returning as Luke Skywalker and Han Solo, according to Entertainment Weekly.
When Disney purchased Lucasfilm for $4.05bn (£2.7bn) last year, it said it planned to make a new trilogy of Star Wars films to follow on from the existing six movies.
