Director Rian Johnson 44 says that Fisher came up with many of her character s scenes including a funny moment in which she reunites with Mark Hamill‘s Luke Skywalker and points out that she changed her hairstyle.

"That was her " Johnson said. "That was a Carrie Fisher line. Of course it was."

That wasn t the only line in the script that the talented screenwriter and author created.

She also tackled a scene with Admiral Amilyn Holdo (Laura Dern) in which Leia says "You go I ve said it enough " in reference to the much loved saying "May The Force Be With You."

Johnson added that "every single part of her performance" was imbued with Fisher s ideas which she gave him while filming.

"And so we tried to work them in whenever we could " added Johnson.
