Carrie Fisher was forced to lose 35 pounds before she could play Princess Leia again

What a cow....


Last month, Disney finally confirmed that Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, and Carrie Fisher will reprise the roles of Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and Princess Leia in the upcoming Star Wars: Episode VII. But in a recent interview with The Telegraph, Fisher revealed that her Episode VII offer came with a major caveat: losing 35 pounds before filming began.

"They always hire not entirely me; they always want me minus anywhere between 10 pounds and 30 pounds to 40 pounds," said Fisher. "In this case I've been very cooperative. If I could've been as cooperative as I am in this situation in relationships, I'd be happily married. But I complied."

Actors/actresses often need to lose or gain weight for their roles. Not a big deal for them. It's part of the business.

Thin Privilege is not being loved by Hollywood with your natural body habitus.

I've got up to Season 5...need to complete it out and finally see them all...Series was over after 7??

What was your take on Jessie...a good add to the cast or an unneeded extra?

Yeah, you do! It's really a great series.


I was resistant to Jessie at first, and thought he was a little on the corny side, but he grew on me. I think he fits in with the group well, and by the end of the show, I came to really like him quite a bit. Smilie
