Any chance there could be other characters already cast? My son really wants to see Kit Fisto.

Casting is just for face characters. I would assume that Kit will return.

The Emperor and his Royal and his Royal Guards were out for meet and greets in 2005. I also met Greedo that year. I have read that Han used to meet in the initial years, but have not seen pictures.

Interesting. All of the average height males are significant characters but visually bland, whereas most of the average height female characters are obscure but interesting aliens.

I've never understood why the don't cast Han Solo. He's a major part of the original 3 films.
