Planets of EP III

JC question from sw.com:

Any chance we will see some familiar planets in Episode III like Alderaan or Corellia or Kessel?

-One of those, we may see.

Now, remember, its McC answering, so don't bet on it, and he says "MAY see", I'm thinking in the lines of NONE

Not that anyone is familiar with Corellia or Kessel! So I wonder which 'one' he could mean...?

probably Tatooine 🙄

my money's on Alderaan

No Corellia or Kessel, I hope.

Although someone once mentioned that Kessel was a volcano planet, so if the lava duel has any credibility.... who knows.

Alderaan is a must

Quite.

It's vital to the plot.

Is it? I dunno.... all we know is that Leia goes there after birth. Hardly a crucial plot point so far.

But it will be.

There was a casting rumour on TFN. The poster suggested a young actrice was to play Leia. Now I find that hard to believe.

they were actually talking about baby luke and baby leia:

"The Peter Pan casting team also is looking for talent that may be suitable for other projects. "If they're not right for this, they may be right for something else," Ms Martin said. The opportunity is the latest highlight in a boom time for Australian actors.

There is even a possibility two Australian children could be cast in the pivotal roles of Luke and Leia in the final Star Wars episode to be filmed in Sydney next year.

"A baby Luke, if anything, and Leia an Australian? Who knows?" said Attack of the Clones producer Rick McCallum during his recent Sydney visit."

That was not the one I read.

and who was the source?

It was something on TFN.... can't remember. i can check though.

Here it is:

A casting rumor originally posted on darkhorizons.com. From eonline.com:

Dominique Swain told a London TV station she's close to joining the cast of a "blockbuster new space film," reports Dark Horizons. She dropped two hints that seem to point toward a role in Episode III. She said if she takes the part, she'll work mostly with Jimmy Smits (as Bail Organa, Leia's godfather) in a "hot" climate. I'm no Star Wars fanatic, so I'm going out on a limb here, but I'm feeling Swain as the young Princess Leia. Am I completely high?
Knowing Lucasfilm's reputation for secrecy, it's highly doubtful Swain would spill the beans so early on EP3 casting. Thanks to Tom for the heads up.

He truely doesnt know SW 🙄

anyone know if Beru Whiteson will be played by the same as in EpII?

I don't know the official word...but I assume that Bonne Piesse still has the part of Beru in Ep III

ah, great
shooting in January will cast some lights about some things
