Carrie Fisher says that even though it's been years since she played Princess Leia, she has always felt like the character and so it wasn't difficult to play her again in Star Wars: The Force Awakens. She discusses how the characters in Star Wars are really human, as opposed to being superheroes, and therefore are very relatable, and jokes that a princess would in reality get better clothing. Finally, she says having her daughter play a small role in this film made it very special for her.
