Mark Hamill Had The Sweetest Response To News That Carrie Fisher Will Get Star On Hollywood Walk Of Fame

The 'Star Wars' actor shared a touching tweet that hailed the news that the Hollywood Walk Of Fame will award Fisher with her 'long overdue' star on May 4th.

It was announced yesterday that the Star Wars franchise's Princess Leia, Carrie Fisher, will finally receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Fisher was and still is beloved by the entire fandom. Fisher passed away unexpectedly on December 16, 2016, several days after having a heart attack on a flight back from the U.K.


To make the tribute all the more touching, the star will be revealed on May 4th, which is widely celebrated as Star Wars day—as in "May the 4th Be With You."

The Walk of Fame tweeted:

"May the 4th be with you!"
"Beloved actress Carrie Fisher will be honored posthumously with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on May 4th at 11:30 AM."

Fans responded to the announcement with suggestions for Fisher's star to be placed near her iconic mother Debbie Reynolds'. 

The minds behind the Walk of Fame arrangements were able to confirm that was already in the works.

"Carrie's star will be located on the same block, very close to the star of her iconic mama."

Most reactions were bittersweet, as fans were excited but surprised it had taken so long to become a reality.


The most touching reaction came from Mark Hamill—Luke Skywalker opposite Fisher's Princess Leia.

"Long overdue and so well-deserved."

Fans of the franchise could not agree more with Hamill's sentiment.








The conversation in the last 24 hours is not the first time Carrie Fisher has surged back to the front of our minds. Fisher's daughter, Billie Lourd, previously gave a touching tribute to her and her grandmother, Debbie Reynolds, while talking about grieving around the holidays. Fans of Star Wars have also pondered Fisher's ethereal presence, like at the panel where J.J. Abrams discussed the production of Skywalker and the lights dimmed, some theorized as Fisher's approval of the production.

These little echoes of Fisher still being with us, at least in memory, continue to pop up, and while her star being placed on the Walk of Fame is an important echo, we highly doubt it will be the last.

During Tuesday's cabinet meeting while the press was in attendance, MAGA Republican President Donald Trump gave a rambling stream of consciousness speech that went all over the place before landing on paint versus gold leaf, leading people to again question the POTUS' mental acuity amid a notable cognitive decline.

In a disjointed monologue about the decor in the cabinet room, Trump said he stole a grandfather clock from Secretary of State Marco Rubio's office and chose a painting of James Polk because the frame matched the frame around his favorite President—Andrew Jackson.
