Once a sex symbol, always a sex symbol. Actress Carrie Fisher made history as a Princess Leia in the first three "Star Wars" films, and entered every 80s teenager's dream with her iconic look in the metal bikini as one of Jabba the Hut's slaves in "Return Of The Jedi."
As the news broke that Disney has bought the rights to "Star Wars" from George Lucas, and that a new film was in the works, speculation started roaming the internet fan forums on whether the original trio -- Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford and Fisher herself -- would be joining the cast. And as it looks, they are.
Disney has yet to confirm it officially, but the beans are already spilled. Fisher is reportedly in talks with Disney for her involvement on the project, but apparently they want her to drop some pounds first.
"I like being bought by Disney," she said. "I am glad they are doing a new movie because they are sending a trainer to my house so I can get in really good shape."
And, as it couldn't have been any other way, fans went crazy with speculation and theories. Is Disney hoping the 56-year-old will be up for wearing the slave costume again? Fisher offered no clues, but as Yahoo pointed out, in a world where we can see six new "Star Wars" movies in the next seven years, anything is possible.
