In addition to some new footage of Han Solo, the latest Star Wars: The Force Awakens TV spot also treated fans to the first look at another beloved character. In a scene (about 48 seconds into the TV spot), General Leia is at the center of a table that is surrounded by some familiar and some not so familiar characters.

One side of the table has Han Solo and a young woman, who appears to be Carrie Fisher’s daughter Billie Lourd. It’s unknown what character Lourd is playing. Many had assumed she might be playing a younger version of Leia, but if she’s sharing a scene with her mom, then that theory is out the window.
The other side of the table has C-3PO and Admiral Ackbar. At least we’re assuming that it’s Ackbar, it could always just be another member of the amphibious Mon Calamari species. However, since actor Tim Rose previously confirmed that he would be returning to reprise his role as Admiral Ackbar, it’s a pretty good bet that it is Ackbar. One has to wonder though if he’s still an Admiral or if he’s gotten a new title like Leia.
Star Wars: The Force Awakens is scheduled to be released in movie theaters on December 18, 2015.
