Fisher confirms Star Wars return…. almost…. again

April 29th, 2013 by Marc Comments

After confirming her involvement in Star Wars: Episode VII back in November, only for her publicit to later claim the comment was “tongue-in-cheek”, Carrie Fisher has again commented on her likely appearance in the next adventure in a Galaxy Far, Far Away.

Speaking to fans at the Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo, the actress said: “I like being bought by Disney, because they never wanted to buy me before.”

According to the Calgary Herald, Fisher told the crowd: “I’m 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 I’m 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.”

So there you have it. More proof that the Big Three will likely return. Just get a move on Disney and officially confirm it.

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
