Star Wars Celebration Europe is set to welcome one of the most famous princesses of sci-fi to Essen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.
Carrie Fisher is scheduled to appear at Celebration Europe July 26-28 to greet fans and sign autographs in the Celebration Autograph Hall organized by Official Pix. She’s also scheduled to appear on stage with host (and fellow “Star Wars” star) Warwick Davis for an interview and question and answer session.
When she became Princess Leia in “A New Hope,” Fisher was only 19 years old. The daughter of actress Debbie Reynolds and singer Eddie Fisher, Fisher began her career playing against Warren Beatty in 1975’s “Shampoo.” She also starred in the “Star Wars” sequels “The Empire Strikes Back” and “Return of the Jedi” as well as many other films and television shows, including “The Blues Brothers,” “The Man with One Red Shoe,” “Hanna and Her Sisters,” “When Harry Met Sally,” “Austin Powers” and more. She also acted in her own television specials, including the autobiographical “Wishful Drinking.”
