Jay 37,378 Posted December 27, 2016 Author Share Posted December 27, 2016 Well I mean, who knows. It's possible she dies in Episode 8, right? Depending on what Leia does in Episode 8, its also possible they could leave half her scenes in Ep 8 and move half to Ep 9. There's a lot of possibilities, and we probably won't hear much publicly about it from Johnson, Trevorrow, or Disney until after Episode 8's been released.

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 Of course. We don't really have any idea about what her role is in Ep 8. I expect that soon we will hear at least of she had already finished all her scenes or more were scheduled. But I doubt anything else will be announced.

mrbellamy 6,298 Posted December 27, 2016 Share Posted December 27, 2016 I saw a rumor awhile ago that Leia gets injured and put in a coma in 8. Eerie if true...if so, they can probably write Leia's death in and shoot something addressing that if they hadn't already. I imagine John will use the original end credits arrangement with Leia's Theme for 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we get a scene where we get to see Luke being made aware of Leia's passing, Williams may find it appropriate to slip in one last rendition of the theme, similar to how Han and Leia's theme got one last reprisal shortly after Han's death in TFA. rpvee, crumbs and leeallen01 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crumbs 14,319 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 From Johnson's point of view, I wouldn't really want to change my movie to accommodate changes required for IX. Seems pretty clear she wasn't being killed off in VIII though, so it's likely they were saving a climatic confrontation with her son for IX. I would hope they fill that void with Luke instead, given the whole Knights of Ren subplot. Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's possible/probable given that Leia was apparently a key part of IX. So if Luke currently dies in VIII, Johnson won't have much choice except re-shoots. Something would feel a bit weird if IX didn't have any of the original 3 in a supporting role, given the way every sequel/prequel thus far has retained the Skywalker family line.

Arpy 4,145 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Hopefully they don't CG her. Just softly mention that she died, have a funeral scene mirroring Padme's from Revenge of the Sith and move on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crumbs 14,319 Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 17 minutes ago, BloodBoal said: The most logical thing to do (and possibly the easiest, too), if Luke was meant to die at the end of VIII, is to simply reshoot the end of VIII, to have him survive and Leia die in his place, and have him play the part Leia was meant to have in IX. I think any confrontation with Ren in IX would have just as much weight with his mother as it would his former Jedi master (whose students he murdered en masse after turning dark). Without knowing either character's fate in VIII it's hard to speculate what the best approach might be. Re-shooting Luke's potential death scene so he survives and takes Leia's role in IX seems like a no-brainer. As for Leia, they may prefer to leave her scenes intact for VIII then A) give themselves a few extra years to perfect a CGI double and scale her role down, like Mon Mothma in ROTJ, or B) write her out of IX entirely and address it in the opening crawl. "The Resistance is in mourning," or something like that. Something in the style of Padme's funeral would be quite touching for an opener to the final film, starting the final story with some emotional gravitas, setting Luke and Rey off on a vengeful mission to avenge her. I imagine Luke dealing with Ren's murder of Han will be a key plot point in VIII (perhaps why he was crying at the end of TFA). Will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, but they still had to do a CGI Leia. And if the film is structured to the climatic Luke-Kylo confrontation...they would have to change a lot. It makes more sense to make kylo kill his parents and then luke (the most powerful jedi alive) confronts him (try to redeem him after that would be difficult...but maybe luke wants to kill him in revenge and rey convinces him not to...or not) Having leia confront him in the last film and defeat him (with the force) would be weird because she seems not to be trained (that didnt preven rey either..anyway...)

Jay 37,378 Posted March 10, 2017 Author Share Posted March 10, 2017 ‘Avatar 2’ 2018 Release “Not Happening”, Says James Cameron This could create a potential mess for Lucasfilm in 2019. If Avatar 2 will now open December 2019 instead of December 2018, what do they do with Episode 9? Currently Disney already has scheduled Avengers 4 in May 2019, Toy Story 4 in June 2019, and Indiana Jones 5 in July 2019... making it likely that they'd release Star Wars Episode 9 in December 2019. But if Avatar 2 has that month, then what does Disney do? They could move Episode 9 to July 2019 and Indiana Jones 5 to November 2019, perhaps.
