Carrie Fisher hints at Star Wars: Episode VII role
CARRIE Fisher has hinted that she has a role in Star Wars: Episode VII, claiming that she is happy to be 'bought by Disney'.
The actress, who is best known to Jedi fans as Princess Leia, said the new owners of the Star Wars franchise have sent a personal trainer to her house.
The 56-year-old also revealed that she is glad a new series of films are being made during a talk at the Calgary Comic Expo.
She said: "I like being bought by Disney, because they never wanted to buy me before.
"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."
The Star Wars actress also revealed one of her favourite scenes was choking Jabba the Hutt to death in Return of the Jedi.
She said: "What was his name? Jabba the Hut? I always get his name mixed up with other boyfriends.
"Oh God, I loved doing that. You know, they ridiculously asked me if I wanted a stunt double to kill Jabba the Hut. Can you imagine?
"I got to saw that neck off, it was really, really fun and one of the highlights of my career."
