$\"NewsHub\"$ LOS ANGELES \u2014 The makers of \u201cStar Wars\u201d have put a quick end to rumors that while Carrie Fisher has died, her Princess Leia may live on.
Making a rare foray into the sprawling world of \u201cStar Wars\u201d speculation, Lucasfilm said Friday night that there are no plans to digitally recreate Fisher to appear in future episodes of the movie saga.
\u201cThere is a rumor circulating that we would like to address,\u201d a company statement said. \u201cWe want to assure our fans that Lucasfilm has no plans to digitally recreate Carrie Fisher\u2019s performance as Princess or General Leia Organa.\u201d
Fisher, who reprised her role as Leia in 2015\u2019s \u201cStar Wars: Episode VII \u2013 The Force Awakens,\u201d had finished shooting \u201cStar Wars: Episode VIII,\u201d due out next December, when she died Dec. 27 of cardiac arrest at age 60.
Her mother Debbie Reynolds died the next day.
But Fisher had also been slated to appear in \u201cEpisode IX,\u201d scheduled for release in 2019. That film is still being scripted, and the writers are deciding how to handle her death.
