Princess Leia – Carrie Fisher
There are several lovely sci-fi characters, but none is as well-known as Princess Leia. The iconic character was played by actress Carrie Fisher in the original 1977 Star Wars and subsequent installments.
Even people who haven’t seen the movies know Leia’s cinnamon bun hairstyle and golden bikini. Carrie Fisher went on to act, script-doctoring and authoring additional works. The actress passed away in 2016 at 60 years of age, just as her legendary mother, Debbie Reynolds, died the day after.
