I saw 'Star Wars' for the first time when I was four years old. Sure, I thought Princess Leia was awesome. But the character I identified with most was Luke Skywalker. I left the theater certain the Force was strong with me, that I could train to be a Jedi and wield a lightsaber just like Luke.

I really want to play Princess Leia. Stick some big pastries on my head. Now that would be interesting.

After my own for instance, my favourite is Princess Leia.

I literally cannot remember a time when I was not asking myself what events in 'Star Wars' were like for Princess Leia. The good side of all this is that what looked like 'goofing off' or 'daydreaming' these many years has all turned out to be valuable career preparation.

Along with aging comes life experience, so in every way that is consistent with even being human, Leia has changed.

People used to call her Debbie Reynolds' daughter. Now they call me Princess Leia's mother!

I knew I wanted to be an actress when I was 9 years old.

It's hard to see yourself as a princess because it involves a huge leap of the imagination and sort of requires you to believe you can be that, which is a scary, weird thing.
