Looks like Harrison Ford won't be flying Solo when it comes to appearing in the next set of Star Wars movies

Geeks and nerds, just like JOE, all around the world have been desperate for any news on the next few Star Wars movies, and it has been emerging bit by bit. We found out last week that J. J. Abrams had finished the script for Episode VII and we also knew that Harrison Ford was on board as has been chatting about it...sort of. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7T0vs9gYydo However, today Carrie Fisher (aka Princess Leia) announced that she was due on set too in the Spring of this year, and she would not only be joined by Ford, but also Mark Hamill who you may know better as Luke Skywalker. She told the folks at TV Guide that "I'd like to wear my old [cinnamon buns] hairstyle again — but with white hair. I think that would be funny." Fisher was chatting to the famous magazine about her upcoming appearance on a few different shows, and also added that she'll be making an appearance in an episode of The Big Bang Theory as herself, when Sheldon tries to organise his own Comicon. Sounds god to us. Hat-tip to MediaGirl for the main pic
