Princess Leia

With Carrie Fisher's death on Tuesday, the world is looking back on her incredible life and career, where she'll always be remembered most for playing the iconic role of Princess Leia in the "Star Wars" franchise. 

But Fisher was so much more than just a princess in a galaxy far, far away.

Along with being a best-selling author and script doctor, she also had close to 90 screen credits over a 41-year career. It's a wide-range selection from the supportive girlfriend in "When Harry Met Sally" to playing Peter's boss in "Family Guy." 

Here we highlight the roles Fisher played in both movies and TV outside of the "Star Wars" saga.

"Shampoo" (1975)

In her first movie role, Fisher plays one of the girls who can't resist the looks and charm of hairdresser George (played by Warren Beatty).



"The Blues Brothers" (1980)

Fisher plays a woman determined to kill her ex-fiancée Jake Blues (John Belushi) in the most sensational ways possible. She never succeeds, and left instead are some outrageous moments in a comedy classic.   



"Under the Rainbow" (1981)

Never shy to star in movies that went against the grain ("Star Wars" certainly was that), here Fisher stars opposite Chevy Chase in an outlandish comedy set in a LA hotel where auditions for "The Wizard of Oz" are being done. (Yeah, this one is out there!)
