10 Times Star Wars Refused To Give Fans What They Wanted

While routinely teased throughout her time within the galaxy far, far away, it's safe to say that fans never really got to see General Leia Organa fully explore her Force sensitivity on the big-screen.

Now sure, there was the odd moment of floating through space with some Force assistance in The Last Jedi and her training under brother Luke Skywalker was touched upon ever so slightly via flashback in The Rise of Skywalker.

But outside of these fleeting instances of Force prowess and the occasional sensing of her sibling in the Original Trilogy, next to no screen-time time is really spent fleshing out Leia's Jedi journey that saw her eventually becoming a powerful Force-user in her own right.

The fact that ROS bout of ancient lightsaber practise came so late in the day merely felt like a way to appease those who had long been desperate to see the galaxy's favourite princess fulfil the potential the saga had been hinting at for decades. In truth, though, all it did was remind fans of what could've and perhaps should've been when it came to this particular icon of the Star Wars franchise.
