Cast for Episode IX got unveiled this morning!
All the usual suspects are back:
Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, Lupita Nyong’o, Domhnall Gleeson, Kelly Marie Tran, Joonas Suotamo and Billie Lourd.
New cast members include:
Naomi Ackie (Lady Macbeth), Richard E Grant (Logan, Game of Thrones, Downton Abbey) and Keri Russell (Mission Impossible 3)
Also returning is the one and only Billy Dee as Lando! What is most interesting, is the fact that Carrie Fisher will be back. She will supposedly make a return via some manipulated, deleted footage from The Force Awakens. No recasting or CGI. That will be pretty interesting to see.
It's also great that Luke will return to give some force ghost advice to Rey. Notably absent are Benicio Del Toro, and Andy Serkis. So all the theories about Snoke's resurrection can be put to rest. He is dead.
Pretty interesting cast!
