Star Wars Episode 7 Casting Update [See Video]: Han Solo’s Daughter Could Be Played By “Atonement” Star Saoirse Ronan As Suggested From Her Audition

There’s a lot going on for Star Wars Episode 7 casting as more and more stars are said to be auditioning for a role in the much talked about sequel. The “How I Live Now” actress is the first one to admit to auditioning and revealed how the process went.

According to her interview from Empire Podcast the 19-year old actress did a little teasing about her experience of going in for JJ Abrams.

“Yeah, I did [audition for Star Wars Episode VII]… I don’t know whether I should have said that now! I mean, everyone did. Everyone has auditioned for it. So many people I know have gone in for the part I’ve gone in for, and guys who’ve gone in for a particular part, so I’d imagine J.J. is probably just scanning the earth to find the people that ne needs.”

No one still has a clue about the upcoming movie's plot though as stated from her interview.

“But nobody has a clue what it’s about, and nobody’s read the script. So I’ve gone in and read for it, but I have to say, I think it’s the only time I’ve ever thought, ‘You know what? Even if I don’t get it, I had so much fun auditioning, pretending to take out a lightsaber – out of a bag, kind of inspect it and not know what it is. That was… that was great. A lightsaber! Star Wars!”

She did mention something about having to use a pretend lightsaber right? A female Jedi it is! Could it be possible that she’s auditioning for a role as Han Solo’s supposed daughter? Or, it’s possible that she was imitating the scene of Luke Skywalker in “A New Hope”.

Set to present a script by JJ Abrams and Lawrence Kasdan after Michael Arndt exits from the project, Star Wars: Episode VII is rumored to concentrate on a new generation of stars and could feature appearances by Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill and Harrison Ford in embodiments of their previous beloved characters from the original Star Wars trilogy.
