9 Fan Service Moments Everyone Wants In Upcoming Movies

4. Han, Luke And Leia Reunited - Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker

For all the controversy and divisiveness surrounding the Disney-helmed Star Wars sequels and spin-offs, the cinematic return of beloved heroes Han Solo, General Leia and Luke Skywalker have universally put smiles on every fan of the franchise.

However, due to numerous winding threads, sub-plots and deaths, it is looking unlikely that we will ever get to see everybody's favourite trio of Galaxy-saving heroes together on the big screen again.

With Han Solo having perished at the hands of his son Kylo Ren in The Force Awakens and Luke Skywalker succumbing to his age and effort after buying the Resistance time to escape from The First Order, Leia is left all alone as the final surviving member of the original Star Wars heroes. An unexpected, if not very bittersweet turn of events then, as Leia actress Carrie Fisher has so far been the only of the three to pass away in late 2016.

Star Wars has never been one to let death be the end of a character, with the concept of force ghosts giving characters life beyond their physical death, so it isn't too hard to imagine a truly fan-pleasing reunion in the upcoming The Rise Of Skywalker.
