Leia may face a Hutt again in The Force Awakens

A popular alien race first introduced in “Return of the Jedi” will mark their return in “Star Wars : The Force Awakens”, according to Latino Review.

Whispers have it that Princess Leia may come face-to-face with a couple more of those giant slugs again in the new film, due December. Leia, of course, was responsible for the murder of Jabba the Hutt – so likely isn’t the most popular royal with the desert-based blobs.

According to the source, JJ Abrams commissioned a couple of Hutt’s to be built for the film (they’ll likely be reused for the next films in the series) and they took a good year or so to construct.
