Star Wars Event Fuels Isaac's 'Far, Far Away' Return

Oscar Isaac's Star Wars Celebration 2025 Appearance Fuels Poe Dameron Return Speculation

Sequel Trilogy star Oscar Isaac's confirmed appearance at Star Wars Celebration 2025 in Tokyo (April 18-20) has ignited fan speculation about a potential return of his character, Poe Dameron. The announcement, made via the official Star Wars Celebration Instagram, follows Daisy Ridley's 2023 appearance where she revealed her involvement in a new Star Wars film.

The Sequel Trilogy concluded in 2019 with The Rise of Skywalker, leaving Isaac's feelings towards the franchise somewhat ambiguous. While initially expressing reluctance to return unless financially motivated, he later indicated openness to future projects.

Isaac's past criticisms of Disney, particularly regarding the rejection of a romantic storyline between Poe and Finn (John Boyega's character), are well-documented. Boyega also voiced negative experiences but has expressed openness to future roles.

This fuels speculation about a reunion of the Sequel Trilogy's main trio – Rey, Finn, and Poe – in the upcoming Rey film, set approximately 15 years after The Rise of Skywalker. Ridley has already voiced her support for Boyega's return, making Poe's inclusion a logical possibility.

While Star Wars Celebration 2025 might offer clues, fans face a prolonged wait for confirmation. Multiple Disney Star Wars projects have experienced significant delays, pushing the earliest potential release date for the Rey film (directed by Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy) to December 17, 2027.
