More Evidence That STAR WARS EPISODE VII Will Have A Female Lead?

Remember a while back when we posted this pretty sketchy rumor that J.J. Abrams' new Star Wars flick would have a female lead? Well now there's a bit more to support it. Read on for some Tweets from The Wrap's Jeff Sneider..

He means Wars not Trek.. obviously! This appears to be a very persistent rumor indeed, and I for one think there's definitely some truth to it. Lets assume it's legit, which character could it be? Well there's Princess Leia of course, but I doubt she'd be singled out to be the focus out of all of the original trilogy characters they could choose from. A far more likely choice - since this is a new generation we're talking about - is the daughter of Leia and Han Solo (Jaina Solo) but since we were told that the expanded universe novels weren't going to be drawn from, that also seems like a long-shot. There are lots of established characters it could be, or we could be looking as a brand new leading lady for that galaxy far far away. What do you guys think?
