Vivien Lyra Blair, who played the young Princess Leia in the Disney+ Obi-Wan Kenobi series, has revealed that she is hoping to reprise the role for a spin-off show.

While chatting to Bleeding Cool, The Boogeyman actress was asked if she’s been contacted about potentially returning for a second season.

Blair hasn’t heard anything, but even if Lucasfilm does come up with a way to continue the story, she doesn’t think Leia would be involved. However, she would be more than happy to return for a new series focusing on the young princess and her loyal droid, Lola!

“I don’t know. I honestly have no information. If I did, I wouldn’t be able to tell anyone. I think Ewan’s hoping they could do season two [of Obi-Wan Kenobi]. I was saying as much as I would love to do it, I don’t see how I would fit into it because it’s commonly thought that he doesn’t see Leia again until she asks for help in A New Hope.”

“I feel maybe I could do a cameo kind of thing like Teenage Leia at the end of the second season,” she added. “Maybe there could be that, but we’re also hoping for my show, like Leia and Lola thing, which could be fun to do. I hope I get to come back and play her again, but it may be a limited series, and that may be all it is.”

While this idea does have some potential, we’d say it’s highly unlikely – though it would be a shame if we didn’t get to see Blair in this role again.

Obi-Wan Kenobi managed to pull off (depending on who you ask) a compelling enough story set between the events of the Prequels and A New Hope, but revisiting the former Jedi master for another pre-original trilogy adventure might be pushing it – especially if Leia and/or Darth Vader are also involved.

Would you be interested in a second season of Obi-Wan Kenobi or a Leia spin-off? Let us know in the usual place.
