Answer: Carrie Fisher
Fisher, a native of Los Angeles, CA, landed the part of Princess Leia. Princess Leia was a member of The Rebel Alliance and they had plans to blow up The Death Star. Right before Princess Leia was captured by Darth Vader's men, she hid the plans in R2-D2 and delivered a message to Obi-Wan Kenobi, asking him for his help. Darth Vader told Princess Leia she would be released if she told him where the plans were located. Princess Leia refused to cooperate. Midway through the film, she gave the wrong location of where the rebel base was. However, Princess Leia's home planet of Alderaan was blown up anyway. At one point, Luke, Leia, Han and Chewbacca were in a garbage compacter that was about to squish them to death, but R2-D2 managed to stop this from happening. Fisher reprised the role of Princess Leia for "The Empire Strikes Back" and "Return of the Jedi". She was also in the film, "The Women".
