Carrie Fisher's Princess Leia Organa in her iconic A New Hope buns and white dress, edited together over a dynamic background

Summary At Fan Expo Chicago, Star Wars legend Mark Hamill had very high praise for A New Hope, specifically pertaining to the representation of Princess Leia and the movie's feminist story arc. A New Hope remains one of the most beloved additions to Star Wars movies and TV shows. In fact, despite the nearly 50 years since the original trilogy debuted, A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi are still frequently regarded as being Star Wars' best movies.

Although this perspective will undoubtedly be controversial to some, as even the term 'feminism' has become loaded in this fandom and beyond, Mark Hamill's assessment of both A New Hope and Princess Leia's role in the movie is absolutely perfect. In The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi , Leia proved to be absolutely essential to both the Rebellion and the future of the Jedi.
