A more detailed report from

As far as Star Wars content in the talk, we have the following:
•Carrie dropped out of drama school in London for Star Wars at 19.
•She has requested that she wears the hair buns again, but this time with grey hair as she does cooking as granny Leia.
•She has done script reading and costume fittings but hasn’t been in front of the camera yet. I guess this means she won’t be in the Abu Dhabi scenes.
•Her filming for Episode VII will start in a few weeks.
•Her favourite moment filming the original trilogy was killing Jabba the Hutt and she is hoping to have the opportunity it again “as killing a giant monster is the only reason to become an actor”.
•Carrie wears the gold bikini from Return of the Jedi every day, all the time.
•6 foot 1 inch is too tall to be a Stormtrooper.
•She also avoided answering on how she felt about the prequel trilogy by saying she was in rehab at the time and the hospital was unable to show them.
•As a script writer she was asked to evaluate the Episode VII scipt, which she couldn't comment on for fear of getting into trouble, but did respond with ‘its been written by Lawrence Kasdan and J.J. Abrams- DO THE MATH.

More speculation about the return to Hoth.
Hoth isn't the only cannon cold weather planet. Maybe it's Ilum or Orto Plutonia?
