Oscar Isaac says Episode IX handles Carrie Fisher's death "in a really beautiful way"
Our weird-ass society’s gotten into the habit of CGI’ing dead people back into existence, and there was some fear in the wake of Peter Cushing’s Rogue One “cameo” that J.J. Abrams would do that very thing to the late Carrie Fisher in Star Wars: Episode IX. Abrams assuaged those concerns this summer, when he officially announced that Fisher would not be recast or digitally replaced once filming for the movie began in August. The arc of Leia Organa, he said, would be completed with “unseen footage” from Star Wars: Episode VII—The Force Awakens.
