Carrie Fisher is someone who means a lot to me. She’s been my hero since I can remember. Her writing helped to inspire me, she is a brilliant woman and truth teller, unshakable in her honesty, and losing her still hurts. On the anniversary of her death, many began to share photos and memories of Carrie, but one especially stood out.
This was the story of the time when Carrie and Oscar Isaac were on set together for Star Wars. The two seemed to get along very well (which makes sense because their energies just go together in my mind), and the story exemplifies what the world is missing out on in losing Carrie Fisher.

I can imagine Carrie dancing and having fun, showing the new “kids” on the set what it’s like to make a Star Wars film because she was always trying to include everyone. I was fortunate to find Carrie three times in a very short time, just before she died, something I will always treasure. I was able to speak to my hero and see firsthand how wonderfully personal and welcoming she was. This story of Carrie and Oscar Isaac makes me miss her even more.
From others Star Wars legends shared their love for Carrie Fisher and it was a lovely and moving celebration of our princess.

I miss Carrie Fisher more than I can say. But hearing these stories and learning more about her from those who worked with her brings me joy, and I hope it brings some to you today.

Unfortunately, Wonder Woman 1984 seems that many old problems with shallow female protagonists who do not offer real diversity come together. It is concerned with the exceptionalism of its white cis-feminine protag in its own detriment. Especially in 2020.https: //t.co/qfFBcUzPxJ pic.twitter.com/gg5eJP0Rns
