Carrie Fisher, the actor who played Princess Leia in the original Star Wars film and went on to reprise the role in the 2015 reboot, has died. She was 60.
Her death prompted an outpouring of grief from celebrities on social media, including her Star Wars co-star Mark Hamill, who simply said he has “no words.”
