Carrie Fisher's Star Wars Scripts To Be Sold at Auction

Expect her Empire Strikes Back shooting script to fetch a high price.

By Lucy O'Brien

Carrie Fisher's hand annotated Star Wars scripts are going up for auction.

Profiles in History have announced that the Fisher's scripts for A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi will be going up for auction during a three day Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds personal property action on Oct. 7-9.

The most notable of these is Fisher's Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back shooting script, which has Fisher's own notes to help her play with the context around Leia's lines. As Mashable points out, there are also lines in there that Fisher has written herself; she was famously not allowed to play around with her dialogue as opposed to her co-star Harrison Ford. She later went on to become one of Hollywood's most talented script doctors.

Profiles in History will also auction off Fisher's A New Hope, Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi bound presentation scripts, personally addressed to Fisher by George Lucas.

Although Fisher passed away last year, she finished shooting her Star Wars: The Last Jedi scenes and will appear in the film when it's released later this year. Fisher will not be appearing in Episode 9, which will now be directed by A New Hope helmer J.J. Abrams after Colin Trevorrow's departure.
