Luke&#8217;s only hope is that Obi-Wan is there to start him on the ways of the Force in enough time for him to be ready.

To avoid some boring diplomatic ceremony, she switches herself out with a decoy just as her mother would. She runs, climbs trees, and dreams of a better, freer world. She dreams of more rights for women. When she is taken, she never cries or begs. She only threatens and assures her abductors that her father will be coming for her and that they will be sorry when he does. She quickly attempts an impossible escape. She has the heart of a ruler and a lion. She is a hero and one of the best female role models since Ahsoka or Princess Leia.<br \/>\n<!-- Zone: character count repeatable. --><br \/>\n <!-- No winning ad found for zone: word count #2! --><br \/>\nThis was a twist in the series that nobody saw coming.

Certainly nothing like confirmations of her active and extensive involvement in the series. Indeed, the young Leia is driving the show&#8217;s plot and quickly stealing the show with her charm and wit. Luke Skywalker is well-explored territory, character-wise. Princess Leia is not. Her character fell victim to the sexism of the &#8217;70s and &#8217;80s, comforting the male lead by default even after her home planet and all her loved ones were blown up and having to endure scenes scantily clad in a revealing, unnecessary costume designed to appeal to the male gaze.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"related-single\">Related: Obi-Wan Kenobi Easter Eggs and Cameos From Episodes 1-3 You May Have Missed<\/span><br \/>\n<!-- Zone: character count repeatable. --><br \/>\nUnfortunately, we lost the wonderful Carrie Fisher much too soon. <em>Obi-Wan Kenobi <\/em>is giving us the opportunity to appreciate Fisher and Leia through Vivien Lyra Blair&#8217;s performance as the free-spirited, larger-than-life princes of the <em>Star Wars <\/em>galaxy.

She is also honest with those around her, speaking her mind to her mother and father and Obi-Wan, who she freely tells is old and a grandfather.

She pulls gags that she gets a kick out of, like swapping herself out with a decoy, so she can escape an event she doesn&#8217;t think is worth her time. She tells Obi-Wan that he looks &#8220;old and beat up.&#8221; She tells him what they should and shouldn&#8217;t do and speaks for him to strangers regardless of his warnings that she should be quiet. And she is usually right.<\/p>\n<p>After all, Obi-Wan nearly sold them out to the stormtroopers on the transport by calling her by her real name instead of her alias. Leia uses humor to defuse situations. For being ten years old, she has an exceptional sense of humor stemming from an unwavering honesty, extraordinary bravery, and a sense of adventure. We are beyond excited that Blair is giving us such an enjoyable experience watching the young Leia build her life, and we can&#8217;t wait to see where the series takes this burgeoning character next!<br \/>\n <!-- No winning ad found for zone: word count #5! -->\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
