It's hard to imagine anyone other than Carrie Fisher donning those iconic cinnamon bun hairpieces or that metal slave-dancer bra. But that just might be the case in 2015, when Episode 7 of the groundbreaking Star Wars saga debuts in theaters.

Sources close to the project tell us that the film will be based on an original story—in other words, not from any of the many books, comics or graphic novels that have supplemented the sweeping story.

So will that mean the return of the original Leia—Carrie Fisher? Or will we see a younger Leia, say, in her mid-20s, her rough age at the end of Return of the Jedi?

If that's the case, we may as well assemble our dream cast. You've already weighed in on who should play Leia's twin brother, Luke Skywalker. Now you have a chance to cast Leia!

So who should play her: Mila Kunis, Anne Hathaway, Rachel McAdams, Jennifer Lawrence or Anna Kendrick?
