Star Wars IX Looks To Add Keri Russell

The star of Waitress and The Americans may be joining the galaxy far far away. Variety reports:

The role calls for action-heavy fight scenes. Russell has shown her ability to perform tough stunts in projects like FX’s “The Americans,” “Mission: Impossible,” and “Dawn of the Planet of the Apes.”

Abrams and Lucasfilm execs met with several actresses for the role in the past two months and settled on Russell right before the Fourth of July holiday.

You should watch Waitress. Andy Griffith is great in it.
