Leia Is No Longer A Princess In #TheForceAwakens

By
EW's week of Star Wars continues with a new focus on Carrie Fisher's Leia. Obviously one of the "legacy players" along with Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, The Force Awakens reintroduces us to the storied Ms. Organa, with one major difference. She's now "referred to as General", says director J.J. Abrams. Nobody calls her "Princess" anymore... with a single exception. We'll leave you to infer who that exception could possibly be.

General Leia is, says Fisher, "Under a lot of pressure. Committed as ever to her cause, but I would imagine feeling somewhat defeated, tired, and pissed.”

"The stakes are pretty high in the story for her," says Abrams, "so there’s not much goofing around where Leia’s concerned. But it felt historic to have her, especially with Harrison, back in scenes together. I can only imagine the baggage that they bring to it. I’m just a fan who loves this stuff, but they’ve been living with it — and living in it — since 1977."

"I think we’re pretty sick of each other by now, so we pretend to be interested in each other between takes," jokes Fisher. "And we fail."

Naked Gun Reboot On It's Way

By
If you've seen Naked Gun - or The Naked Gun: From The Files Of Police Squad ! to give its full title - you'll know that it's a comedic masterpiece that springboards off astonishing levels of silliness and random spoofery. Leslie Nielsen's Frank Drebin is a loveable buffoon for the ages, even when he's discussing his dicky prostrate. Do not, however, expect the Ed Helms -starring reboot to adopt exactly the same tack. According to Naked Gun director/co-writer David Zucker, talking up Airplane!'s screening at Nashville's Wild West Comedy Festival, the new version will not attempt to hit the same spoofy sweet spot as the Zuckers and Jim Abrahams' 1988 comedy. "It won’t be like the Naked Gun that I did," Zucker revealed. "It may be good, but it won’t be that kind of movie. They’re going to use the title. They asked me if I wanted to produce. They’re nice people, but they don’t want to do that style of spoof that I do." One departure...
