Ok, so right after finished ROTJ George is SO PUMPED by Star Wars he dives immediately into making the ST.
So, the same three movies. Same plots. Only fantasy cast in 1985. (this means we need to re-cast Old Han, Leia, and Luke)
I’ll start. How about Mid 80s KIEFER SUTHERLAND as Kylo Ren? Scary voice and a bad attitude.

Ah, so you recommend Terrance Stamp as Snoke? I could see it.

Snoke is Valorum, seeking revenge on the Skywalkers for helping Palpatine.
Charlton Heston would be in his mid 60s, so he could be old crusty Han?
Since Heston played the proto-Indiana Jones (a couple times) it’s only fair he turn around and be Old Daddy Solo.

Limiting it to the same plot is really boring. This should be about how different the plot would be.
I mean, it would be entirely different and not open to useful speculation. Would it use Hamill, Fisher, and Ford playing their characters just a few years older? Would it recast for a plot taking place hundreds of years in the future? Who knows?
You probably don’t recognize me because of the red arm.
Episode 9 Rewrite, The Starlight Project (Released!) and ANH Technicolor Project (Released!)

Exactly. So obviously DEBBIE REYNOLDS as Old Leia.
What about STEPHEN COLLINS (from ST:TMP and the recently cancelled Tales of the Gold Monkey) as Poe Dameron?

I’d cast an '80s porn star as Rey — the bigger the hair, the better.

I dunno about NAUGHTY film, but big hair actress?
MICHELLE PFIEFER was about 26. A bit older than Daisy Ridley, but she could be an intense and physical Rey.

The What if the prequels were made in the 80s? podcast/video was a fun project to listen to, with some great calls for the casting.
So in a similar vein for this, I’d go with:
Old Han - Robert Forster
Old Leia - Debbie Reynolds (once I saw Morgan suggesting her I can’t now think of anyon eelse!)
Old Luke - Bill Bixby
Rey - Jami Gertz (maybe Jennifer Connelly if not too young for the role?)
Finn - Mario Van Peebles
Poe - Judd Nelson
Ben Solo - Kiefer (great shout by Morgan)
I vote Esai Morales for Poe.
Laurence Fishburne for Finn.
Tom Cruise as Kylo (seriously just cut and paste him from ‘Legend’)
Sean Young as Rey in Force Awakens, but the rest of the cast and crew feel she is too “intense” and makes them feel uncomfortable, so they recast her with Jamie Gertz afterwards.
I can honestly see them just putting Hammil, Fisher, and Ford in old age makeup

Aja.
