Several months have passed since Carrie Fisher's unfortunate and untimely death. For weeks, tributes rolled in for both her and her mother Debbie Reynolds — who died days after her daughter's fatal heart attack — and now, as part of the franchise's 40th anniversary celebration, an official Star Wars tribute has been released. It's a homage to Fisher's iconic character, Princess Leia, but it's mostly focused on Fisher herself. The short video shows never-before-seen footage from the sets of the films over the years, including the latest chapters. Even the song choice, "Rebel Rebel" by David Bowie, is perfect. We're going to have to mentally prepare to for Fisher's appearance in Episode VIII.
