Disney's Best New Hope...


Left, Carrie Fisher, Right, Millie Bobby Brown.

If Disney has any sense they'll IMMEDIATELY sign Millie Bobby Brown to a 3 picture deal to play Princess Leia in prequel and/or post Return of the Jedi adventures.

I am mightily impressed by this young lady's talent.  Her Enola Holmes is daring, charming and altogether the most engaging young adult heroine (or hero for that matter) that I've seen in a decade or so.

She might even be talented enough to breathe life into a franchise that lurched to a sadly messy and forgettable finish recently.

Take a cue from the character's appearance in the underrated Star Wars Rebels show and tell us how Leia grows from Senator's daughter to galaxy saving warrior princess.  Fast forward a few years and follow her training and growth into a general and Jedi.

There is another Skywalker
