Billie Catherine Lourd is an American actress born on July 17, 1992. Still somewhat unknown to the public, her family is much less well known. Billie is none other than the daughter of actress Carrie Fisher, the famous Princess Leia from the Star Wars saga, and the granddaughter of actress Debbie Reynolds, made famous by the film Singing in the Rain.

As soon as she graduated, she got her very first contract with a small role in Star Wars VII: The Awakening of the Force. Although at first there were rumours that she would play a youthful version of Princess Leia, the young woman contradicted them.
