Lucasfilm finally revealed its noble intention of NOT recreating a digital version of Carrie Fisher. With the untimely passing of the actress, news have continued to spread all throughout the web on what could happen to the future of the "Star Wars" films.

With the trend of computer-generated imagery (CGI) disseminating all across Hollywood films, a celebrity's passing seemingly does not hinder the continuity of a franchise. However, this is not the case with "Star Wars" and Carrie Fisher, after the actress passed away a few weeks back.

According to the original Star Wars site, the company had something to clarify regarding something that could be misleading. "We don't normally respond to fan or press speculation, but there is a rumor circulating that we would like to address. We want to assure our fans that Lucasfilm has no plans to digitally recreate Carrie Fisher's performance as Princess or General Leia Organa," the site iterated.

The company further said that they are still devastated by her passing and that she will forever be considered a member of the Lucasfilm family. The company named her as their "princess, general and friend," cherishing her memory and legacy.

The speculations were preceded by the plans of Disney and Lucasfilm to create "Star Wars Episode IX" and how her character was supposed to continue taking part on it. Lucasfilm remained adamant that it will not push through with anything digital, in terms of recreating Fisher's character from where it was last seen.

Fisher was born October 21, 1956, in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles California. She was most famous for her roles in "Star Wars: Episode IV- A New Hope" back in 1977, "Star Wars: Episode V-The Empire Strikes Back" and "Star Wars: Episode VI-Return of the Jedi." The actress died at the age of 60 on December 27, 2016 due to a heart attack.
