The Identity of Billie Lourde’s Character Confirmed!
After the recent release of the above image of Billie Lourde in Resistance gear with new droid PZ, speculation has swept the interwebs as to the identity of her character. Is she just a technician or communications officer for the Resistance? Could she be Leia’s daughter since she is Carrie Fisher’s daughter in real life? All good questions, but we’ve got the answers you seek after the jump!
We got word from Jacen’s cousin, who stunt doubles for Lourde in her role in Fox’s Scream Queens as Chanel # 15 that most speculation is correct and she is indeed Han and Leia’s daughter, making her Kylo Ren’s younger sister. Her name is Commander Via Organa-Solo and is a ranking Resistance officer specializing in communications, hence seeing her at the round table discussion on D’Qar.
Jacen’s cousin also makes note that Via is not Force sensitive and thinks her brother, Kylo Ren is dead, like Han and Leia (the clip in the trailer of Han and Leia embracing comes from them learning that their son is alive and leading the First Order’s troops).
