Story or her own trilogy, there's certainly an enticing storyline left dangling at the film's end: The possibility she could be the long-ago abducted daughter of Williams' Lando Calrissian. It's Ackie's personal favorite theory."To give Lando a really nice happy ending that he deserves and have some family, that makes me feel good and brings a nice round circle to his story."
