As the leader of the visual effects team, Roger Guyett, explained: “I always thought, when we were doing these shots, that everyone's looking at her face. Later in the Vanity Fair story, Abrams and The Rise of Skywalker’s visual effects team explain that they actually did the opposite of what Rogue One went for-they created a digital body for Leia, and kept her facial expressions the same. It was a bit like having a dozen pieces of a jigsaw puzzle and then having to make other pieces around it and paint a cohesive image from these separate pieces.” “We looked at the footage we had not used in The Force Awakens, and we realized we had a number of shots that we could actually use. Abrams recently spoke to Vanity Fair about: “We weren't going to recast, we couldn't do a CG character,” Abrams said. We already know that the footage of older Leia was taken from unused footage from The Force Awakens-which is something that director J.J.

The filmmakers CGI-pasted ’80s-era Carrie Fisher on a double’s face, and the results are what you’d expect: A weird, glossy sheen on Leia’s face, and buggy eyes that look taken from a poorly-rendered video game cutscene. Chewbacca Should Have Died in 'Rise of Skywalker'īut, in one odd moment, Rogue One ends with a Leia Organa cameo that feels a little off.
