ST Carrie Fisher (Leia Organa) in the ST

This is a long shot, but just maybe the deleted Carrie Fisher scene is General Leia telling Rey that she’s her mother. Rey welling up in tears might say something along the lines, somehow I’ve always known. We maybe seeing the hug in the trailer after General Leia breaks the news to her.

Some may have also noticed that the teaser uses Leia’s theme. The idea of this deleted scene was perhaps dropped by JJ Abrams for the Force Awakens. General Leia may even tell Rey that Queen Amidala and Anakin Skywalker were her Grandparents. Then you have the title of the film, RISE OF SKYWALKER. Referring to Rey. Rey Skywalker? JJ Abrams was also telling reporters yesterday that it’s amazing how Leia’s scene ties in with the film. Hmm...

Also we see a giant piece of the second Death Star on a planet and then hear the Emperor laugh. Is blue ghost Emperor gonna fight blue ghost Luke Skywalker? Nerding out yo! lol!

 

Suspect and hope there's no relation on the Rey front personally, but yeah, it's definitely not impossible.

 

Whatever Leia tells Rey in the trailer, it makes Rey cry.

I don't think this scene is a simple "Bye, see you soon."

 

Hug scene could be used as a set up scene for Leia going on her own self sacrifice trip to try and save Ben like Han and Luke before her

The ghost laugh a very effective set up scene to really get the juices flowing for this film with out really saying anything

 

I’m sure I’ll be crying too. Seeing the Princess one more time.

 

I'll be happy to see Leia in TROS. I liked how she was handled in TFA overall. Now, in TLJ, Rian Johnson did not destroy her as he did to Luke. But he did mess with her. I have no problem with her flying through space. That was the best thing she did. But I think Leia would have been more crafty and had more ideas. The Leia I knew in the CT had many plans up her sleeves. Just as an example, she tells Poe to get back to her with his slow-posterior bombers so that the First Order can...shoot at them and her. Doesn't make sense. And those bombers, as Eckhardtsladder said, are among the most poorly designed ships in all of Star Wars.

 

How many minutes will Leia be in TROS?

 

I don't think I can post her amount of screentime here, in case it's deemed a spoiler, but you can find that number in her TROS thread.
