I am excited about these, but they’d kind of have to since in real life Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, and Harrison Ford (as well as Bill D. W.) have aged.

One of the problems that they're going to run into is keeping consistency with the books, which were all officially approved and are considered canon.

Big issue being that Leia evolves into a Jedi Knight in the books, while Carrie Fisher evolved into a Hutt in real-life. Hopefully they've had her spending LOTS of time at a gym, cutting down on the bon-bons and otherwise doing things to loose a good deal of weight. Because all the CGI in the world still wouldn't be enough ...

Depends upon which books you’re talking about the Expanded Universe isn’t considered Star Was “canon” , but if Mr. Lucas himself released any kind of Episode Books for VII-IX then yeah, they’d be hard to reconcile those with these new movies.
