Star Wars Episode 7 Casting Rumors: J.J. Abrams Wants Ksenia Solo To Play Role Of Princess Leia and Han Solo's Daughter?

A rumored casting call in New York is reportedly looking for three actors to fill roles in Star Wars Episode 7, including a possible role of Princess Leia and Han Solo's daughter.

Slashfilm.com reports two more actors have reportedly auditioned for a character named "Solo." The newest franchise installment owned by Disney films will be directed by J.J. Abrams.

"Apart from the obvious cool factor of the actress having the correct surname for the role, our previously unnamed source - who henceforth shall be known as Jedi Master SQL - informs us that Latvian actress Ksenia Solo is being considered for a role," Jedi News reports. "Pretty solid source telling me that Ksenia Solo is being considered for a role, potentially Solo playing the daughter of Han Solo."

Ksenia Solo has appeared in the film "Black Swan" and Showcase's "Lost Girl."

The second actor who has rumored to auditions for a "Solo" role is Spartacus actor Liam McIntyre, according to SlashFilm.com. Their original source was from Jedi News, which took down the article linking McIntyre to the film, so we are highly suspicious as to what that could mean.

Unfortunately, no one from the Stars Wars camp has confirmed either of the castings. However, Showbiz 411 reports there is a casting call for Star Wars Episdoe 7 masquerading as a project named "Untitled Studio Feature" being held in New York City.

The Disney film is rumored to be looking for:

[YOUNG MAN] Early 20s. Handsome, but not necessarily heroic. He is witty and smart. Physically fit.

[MAN] Late 20s. Physically fit, handsome and confident.

[YOUNG WOMAN] Late teens. Physically fit, raw energy, independent and with a great sense of humor.

The casting descriptions seem to fit that of Solo and McIntyre, but what do you think about the actors? Will they fit in with the Stars Wars cast? Leave a comment below!
