Emotionele reacties na overlijden Carrie Fisher
Het overlijden van actrice Carrie Fisher raakte fans en collega-acteurs diep en zorgt voor heel wat reacties op sociale media. Acteur Harrison Ford, die als haar love interest Han Solo in de Star Wars-films verscheen, deelde alvast zijn medeleven: “Carrie was er één uit de duizend… Briljant, origineel. Grappig en emotioneel onbevreesd. Ze leefde haar leven, dapper. Mijn gedachten gaan uit naar haar dochter Billie, haar moeder Debbie, haar broer Todd en haar vele vrienden. We zullen haar allemaal missen.”
Ook Star Wars-bedenker George Lucas huldigde Fisher in een verklaring: “Carrie en ik zijn bijna heel ons volwassen leven vrienden geweest. Ze was heel erg slim; een getalenteerde actrice, schrijfster en comédienne met een erg kleurrijke persoonlijkheid waar iedereen dol op was. In Star Wars was ze onze geweldige prinses – pittig, wijs en hoopvol in een rol die moeilijker was dan de meesten mensen denken. […] Ze zal door iedereen gemist worden.”
Andere Star Wars-collega’s en regisseurs herdachten Carrie Fisher op Twitter:

I thought I had got what I wanted under the tree. I didn't. In spite of so many thoughts and prayers from so many. I am very, very sad.

She loved to give one the oddest and most randomly silly presents. These are the last three things she gave me. #CarrieFisher pic.twitter.com/qmI7YWqlZ6
