Star Wars: Check Out First Official Image Of Billie Lourd As Kaydel Ko Connix In The Rise Of Skywalker

As you probably know by now, the late, great Carrie Fisher’s daughter Billie Lourd appears in Star Wars The Rise of Skywalker. There have been many rumors around Lourd possibly standing in as a younger version of her mother, and based on leaks about the opening of the movie, you never know? I won’t discuss those here, but you can find the details in the related section below.

However, Lourd is 100% playing her own character either way in the Star Wars Skywalker Saga finale, as she did in The Last Jedi and that character’s name is Kaydel Ko Connix. Not much is known about Connix’s role in The Rise of Skywalker, but you can catch our first glimpse of the actor in a new costume below courtesy of Reddit, check it out.

Personally, I don’t think there’s anything in this image to get annoyed by or excited by, it just is what it is. That’s not stopped some fans from complaining that this looks about as good as a costume you’d buy for Halloween off the internet, or that it is not very Star Wars…y. Again, I don’t really see any particular issues with this outfit, but you crazy cats can decide for yourselves.

I will say that Lourd’s hair is very reminiscent of her mum’s hair in Return of the Jedi, which is also possibly why there is so much rumor around her being the template for a flashback scene involving Leia at some point.

At this point I have no real idea how big a part Connix is in The Rise of Skywalker, she could just be a random ‘no name’ Resistance Officer like she was in The Last Jedi, or she could have a slightly bigger part. It seems obvious though that Connix won’t be in a main role like that of Rose Tico in The Last Jedi. In fact, I am not really sure how large of a role Rose Tico will have in the finale, as we haven’t really seen much of her mentioned so far other than the fact she is definitely in the film.
