Well-known for her wise-cracking, gun-toting, torture-resisting, and "oh for pete's sake I'll do it" ways in "Star Wars", Princess Leia Organa was a popular vision of the feminine in science fiction for a generation. Her character devolved through romance protagonist in The Empire Strikes Back and into the metal-bikini-wearing of adolescent fantasy in Return of the Jedi.

Played by Carrie Fisher in the films. {{DEFAULTSORT:Leia]]
