Don't Expect To See Liam Neeson Return As 'Qui-Gon Jinn' In STAR WARS EPISODE VII

I'm pretty sure that none of us expected to see Liam Neeson's Qui-Gon Jinn make a return in Star Wars Episode VII, but the Batman Begins actor talks about the possibility of that one day happening and reveals that he would reprise the role if asked. Hit the jump to watch the video...

HeyUGuys recently had the chance to catch up with Liam Neeson to chat about his new movie, A Walk Among The Tombstones. Obviously, he won't be back for Star Wars Episode VII (and as much as he'd like to play Ra's Al Ghul again, that's not gonna happen), but the actor did reveal that he would always be open to it if offered the chance as you can see in the video interview below. 


Personally, I would be shocked if there's any sort of reference to the prequels in Star Wars Episode VII or any other future movie in the franchise. While Qui-Gon Jinn could return as a force ghost, it's difficult to imagine a scenario where and why that could possibly happen. Of course, the character quickly became a fan-favourite after his introduction in The Phantom Menace, so how about a spin-off somewhere down the line. We'll have to wait and see. What do you think?
