Jedi News is going old school, giving (one of?) their Episode VII source(s) a nickname: Jedi Master SQL. Today, SQL tells them that actress Ksenia Solo is being considered for a role, “potentially Solo playing the daughter of Han Solo.” Potentially: I don’t think they’re actually saying that that’s the specific role she’s up for.
Aside from a regular role as Kenzi on the Canadian supernatural drama Lost Girl, Solo has appeared on the TV show Life Unexpected and in the film Black Swan.
As always, remember: A rumor is just that! Nothing is official until Lucasfilm says so.
We HAD to give the source a name. Unnamed Source just sounds so unsatisfying! Unnamed Source sounds like something you’d find in an episode of Man vs Food.
Huh. Well, I have Life Unexpected in my Netflix queue. I gotta say that this about the “fame level” I’d like for most of my potential Episode VII actors… that is, assuming they can actually act!
Mark, I like that the source has a “name.”
Breathesgelatin, Ksenia Solo has some range. I’ve liked what she’s done in Lost Girl and Black Swan.
I miss Darth Friday. ;-)
And this girl… For some reason, the black hair creeps me out a little. Yes, I’m aware that hair can be changed. :-)
Apart from that, I like that I don’t know her. :-)
She does look a bit like Jaina…except for the hair and eyes…
I would be on board with this. It’s the first casting rumor I didn’t immediately laugh at. I hope lesser known talent like her is what they go with.

That’s what they did with the original trilogy…
I thought “Unnamed Source” would lead to so many hilarious “Who’s on first” moments over there at Jedi News. I liked it.
