Mark Hamill says his life would have been "so much less interesting" if Carrie Fisher wasn't in it.
Carrie Fisher
In a sweet tribute to his late 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' co-star, the 65-year-old actor remembered his close friendship with Carrie and quipped she was "high maintenance" but insists he wouldn't have it any other way.
He shared: "When you were in her good graces, you couldn't have more fun with any person on the planet. She was able to make you feel like you were the most important thing in her life. I think that's a really rare quality.
"And then you could go 180 degrees opposite, where you were furious with one another and wouldn't speak for weeks and weeks. But that's all part of what makes a relationship complete. It's not all one sided. Like I say, she was a handful. She was high maintenance. But my life would have been so much drabber and less interesting if she hadn't been the friend that she was."
And Mark also opened up about when the pair first realised how famous 'Star Wars' had made them.
Writing in a guest column for The Hollywood Reporter, he added: "Carrie and I occupied a unique area in each other's lives. It was like we were in a garage band together that somehow hit it huge. We had no idea the impact Star Wars would have on the world.
"I remember we were out on tour right before the movie opened. By the time we got to Chicago, there was a crowd at the airport. I said, 'Hey look, you guys, there must be somebody famous on the plane." I was looking around to see who it might be. And then in the crowd I saw a kid dressed in a Han Solo vest. Then I saw girl dressed like Princess Leia. I said, 'Oh my God, look, Carrie, there's somebody dressed just like you. She's got the buns on her head!'"
