Alex Pettyfer and Rachel Hurd-Wood are the latest names for Luke's son and Leia's daughter:

I know who went in for an audition to play the daughter of Princess Leia (and presumably Han Solo)…And got it confirmed via representation and other solid sources:
Rachel Hurd-Wood
Our sources told us that she went in for a read and, so far, was the only one that went in for the part. However, there will be other girls going for a read, meaning SHE DOESN’T HAVE THE ROLE YET!! We want to be very clear on that before it gets blown out of context. Hurd-Wood is an English actress and model who is known for her role as Wendy Darling in the 2003 film Peter Pan.
That’s not the only thing I found out! I’ve now heard from a number of people that another actor is going for a meeting to possibly star in the film:
Alex Pettyfer
Pettyfer starred in the 2012 movie Magic Mike, and played a supporting role Lee Daniels film The Butler.
As for what Pettyfer is going in for? Your guess is as good as mine, but I would say he’s going in for Skywalker’s son now that Gosling has declined.
Things are going to start heating up in the next month and announcements will probably start around October.
One last note, I’m hearing there is a major casting news (not what I reported above) dropping very soon via Lucasfilm. It could even be officially announced today… but I promised that I wouldn’t say a word on it.
