Colin Trevorrow Talks Making Episode IX Without Carrie Fisher

“Carrie Fisher’s death in December was a hammer blow to Star Wars fans across the world. The release of Star Wars: The Last Jedi later this year will present fans with the perfect opportunity to say goodbye to both Carrie Fisher as an actress, and to the character of Princess Leia, as well. Since Carrie Fisher shot all of her scenes for The Last Jedi before her death, writer and director Rian Johnson will hopefully have the chance to try and orchestrate a fitting farewell. Colin Trevorrow, the writer and director of Star Wars 9, will have a much harder task trying to forge a Star Wars film with the spectre of Carrie Fisher hanging above it. However, The Book Of Henry director has insisted that it will be done with a reverence that is befitting of the Goddess that was Carrie Fisher.” – via Cinema Blend
