The whole world mourns as the death of Carrie Fisher was announced. She died at the age of 60, which was made official by a family spokesperson.
Carrie Fisher died on December 27, 2016 after suffering from a cardiac arrest on December 23, 2016. She was hospitalized at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in L.A. California
As a "Star Wars" princess, Carrie Fisher has become one of pop culture's most iconic women. Her role as the independent princess launched other roles on movies that anchored on not being a damsel in distress.
According to Daily Mail, aside from being showbiz royalty, Carrie Fisher also wrote books, and fixed scripts for movies like "Hook", "Sister Act", and even "Star Wars". However, she also suffered from substance abuse and a bipolar disorder.
Even though she suffered, she was always vocal about her struggles and was an advocate about it. She was always seen with Gary, her therapy dog which is a French bulldog.
Reprising her character as now General Leia, fans were thrilled at her interaction with Han Solo played by Harrison Ford. According to IGN, she was also thrilled to reprise her role as Leia for the other "Star Wars" instalments to come.
Looming along with her death is the narrative for her character. As one of the prominent figures of the rebellion, Carrie Fisher's character is important to the storyline.
Aside from the grief that fans have for her death, they are also concerned with how she would appear on the upcoming "Star Wars: VIII". According to The Sun, the film is now in post-production and all of her scenes have been finished filming.
No other actress could replace her role as Leia Organa, and how she gave spunk and confidence to the character. Fans are also hopeful for a tribute somewhere between the films, the same way "Furious 7" made a tribute for Paul Walker.
