UPDATE! A Better Look at Billie Lourd’s Character from The Force Awakens!
We knew that Carrie Fisher’s daughter Billie Lourd is in The Force Awakens, and according to Lourd’s words, her role in the film will be really small. We got a quick glimpse of her during one of the TV spots (image above, in the left). Now a new image surfaced with a much better look at her…
Lourd’s character was first seen in this TV spot:
Now Taylor Stevenson posted on Twitter a much better look at her, together with the PZ-4CO droid, “a constant fixture in Resistance base control rooms, offering tactical data and communications support during important operations”.

Probably she will be some kind of tactician or communication specialist as well. And it’s nice to see mother and daughter sharing a scene together.
UPDATE!
From: People Magazine
In PEOPLE’s special Star Wars collector’s edition, on newsstands today, Lourd reveals she had an obsession with the original movie when she was growing up.
“I made [my mom] watch it at least once a week – and on special occasions I would make her get in a lightsaber fight with me,” Lourd, 23, says. “Let’s just say the more trained Jedi usually won.”

is that dude on the far left president snow?
He certainly LOOKS like Donald Sutherland, but I’m not sure if it’s really him.
its…. General Madine
No, Madine has a Coruscant Combover
the guy who played Madine (his name escapes me at the moment) is still alive but not in TFA.
It looks like Donald but it’s unlikely to be him. You’d think they’d make a bigger deal about it if he got cast.
yeah, i know, but the resemblance, from that angle at least, is uncanny. …and now i want sutherland to be cast in a future SW movie.
Supreme Leader SNOW(ke)!
Nah, Kenny Rogers.
Hey,
Thanks for the credit, Very few sources do that…
I saw it in a magazine this morning and flicked through and sent to a few other Twitter users.
thanks for sharing it bro
And nobody wants to tell us which magazine
Were there any other cool pictures from that magazine?
Yes, There was an image of Finn clashing his Lightsaber against Kylo Ren`s in the snow, Maz Kanata igniting the Lightsaber on Takodana with Captain Phasma aiming from the background and some other seen before shots.
What magazine was it?
Which magazine was this??
Imagine if she’s actually the next generation of the Skywalker/Solo bloodline.
I believe she is, but something about her quotes when she mentioned people getting Rey tattoos “People don’t even know what Rey is in the story!” gets me thinking.
Outside of the box thought is that Rey is seduced to the dark side in a sick twist
I still can’t believe that people are getting tattoos of the new characters without any knowledge of them yet. It’s cool cause of the impact this new trilogy is having on us fans..but crazy at the same time.
Don’t you like my Jar-Jar tattoo…
Dude Jar-Jar tats are A-Okay with me..I have 3 and I’m currently getting my Darth Jar-Jar one retouched lol
Lol yes.
you have a Darth Jar Jar tattoo? pics or it didn’t happen. LOL
That’s why I’m not buying any toys / merchandise until AFTER I’ve seen the film.
Cause you only buy merchandise of the good guys?
No, because I don’t know who is badass and who is lame.
For all I know, Rey could be a nihilistic bee-otch, Poe could be a doofus, or Chrometrooper might talk in an annoying high-pitched voice.
I’m just saying, it’s odd buying stuff for something you don’t actually know.
That’d be like someone buying a “Windows 8 Rules!” t-shirt before Windows 8’s release and it turns out to be shit. Then you got a t-shirt that cannot be worn in public unless ironically.
Same goes for Star Wars. I’ll pay money for the stuff that I know, for a fact, to be something I like. This is beyond good-bad, it’s just common sense.
I guess that makes me a merch-snob?
So you are implying that if a computer program such as Windows 8 turned out to be really great you WOULD buy and wear (unironically) a T-Shirt saying it “rules”? The nerd-factor here is reaching a level rarely seen before… I salute you!
I was grasping for an original comparison that doesn’t beat the dead gungan.
I used this comparison for complete and utter lack of better options.
Also Windows 7 is pretty awesome, representing the peak of Windows performance before the Dark Times. Before the Metro Interface *shudder*
The Macintosh is nice and all, but me and the Classic Windows format have a deep understanding…
so yes, I’d wear a ‘Windows 7 Ultimate’ t-shirt.
Heck people get tattoos of darkside characters all the time. Vader, Maul, etc..
It would be interesting, and Lourd is certainly a capable actor, but alas I figure she’s just playing a minor character who is not related to General Leia, Han Solo or anybody else. Maybe she’ll show up again in Episode 8, though.
What’s funny is I’ve read people say Rey is too young to be a daughter to Carrie/Leia in real life, Billie and Daisy are the same age!
very cool homage to Toryn Farr
Nailed her.
I found the music that goes with that scene.

speaking of Donald Sutherland as the bearded guy…..what if its actually Dennis Lawson as Wedge ? i do realize the actor has publicly said he didn’t want anything to do with this movie but what if that was more smoke coming from him and team JJ ? Look how Lawson looks these days and then compare the face and nose with the pic of the bearded guy, all he needed was some longer hair and a beard and u got older Wedge :
It’s not Sutherland and it’s not Lawson. Doesn’t look like either frankly. and while it would’ve been nice to have had Wedge, I don’t think Lawson was lying and this is some big conspiracy. He’s just not that important a character. If it were Lando then maybe, but Wedge? Nah.
They messing with us, it’s a motion capture character using a morph of Dennis Lawson and Donald Sutherland
That’s not Dennis Lawson.
It is, it’s just a badly angled shot. It’s from the show New Tricks, in which he stars.
I’m talking about the still image at the top of the article, from The Force Awakens, above – the subect of the initial commentor.
ah, ok
It’s about as likely as my theory that the guy across the table from Leia is Buddy Ebsen. I do realize he died in 2003 but what if that was more smoke coming from him and JJ?
Dennis Lawson is on the short side, the guy in the trailer looked quite tall.
She reminds me a little of a blonde Toryn Farr.
I had exactly the same thought. 😀
Head canon accepted.
I didn’t know Carrie Fisher had children
i made this fb group a while ago to get this actor to cameo in Episode VIII, LETS MAKE THIS HAPPEN : https://www.facebook.com/treatwilliamsepisodeVIII/?fref=ts
OMG young Leia, everybody!
😉
thats cool and all but what about max von sydow? haven’t seen anything with him.
There’s a big thing about his character coming out next week.
you mean the film itself? 😉
Ahahahahaha
LOL.
It’s about damn time!
There is a picture of him out there with Poe.
His name is Lor San Tekka. He’s a Jakuu native and elder who gives Poe a message/item to place inside BB-8. There ya’ go.
Anyone else feel like they’re looking at a blue robot big bird there?
PZ does have that sort of look, doesn’t she?
Wow! She has a long neck.
Why the long face PZ? Billie, don’t go stickin’ your neck out for nobodys.
Mmmm dat neck
She almost looks like she’s playing Leia’s daughter in the movie. If it wasn’t for the fact that she had such a small role I’d speculate that she was.
Scream Queens was a garbage show, and Billie Lourd was one of the few bright spots.
