Star Wars News: Princess Leia's Actor is Dead


Yesterday, on 27th December 2016, Carrie Fisher died at an age of 60.

On 23rd December, Carrie was on a 11-hour flight from London to Los Angeles. On the flight, Carrie had suffered a heart attack.
On 27th December Billie Lourd, the daughter of Carrie Fisher, confirmed that Carrie died 8:55 AM. She was 60 years, from 1956 to 2016.

Carrie was a part of the Star Wars universe since the first movie. She acted in Star Wars IV: A New Hope (1977), Star Wars V: The Empire Strikes Back (1980), Star Wars VI: Return of the Jedi (1983), and Star Wars VII: The Force Awakens (2015). She played the role as Leia Organa, the daughter of Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader and Padmé Amidala, and the sister to Luke Skywalker.

Carrie will always be in our hearts. She will be remembered as one of the most famous characters in the Star Wars universe.

One of the things I will remember about her is the quote from A New Hope: "Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope".

What will you remember about her?

May the Force Be With You, Carrie!
