I think bringing the dead back to life in a movie was more of a courtesy for the family, in regard to Cushing and fisher for rogue one. That would have been crummy to do if the family didn?t sign off.
As far as Ford, some believe he renegotiated his likeness rights when he agreed to do the sequels. It makes sense that they would bend over backwards for him, so who knows??
It?s all speculation because how is it possible to only have smuggler and stormtrooper han? Something must be up. Ford also seems like a jerk about Star Wars, so he could be the hold up.
Yep but that's always been the case, lol. That's the first I've heard of him making extra demands on things like likeness royalties in order to return but it wouldn't shock me if that turned out to be true.
