After actress Carrie Fisher’s death on Tuesday, a clip featuring her original audition for the “Star Wars” franchise is getting quite a bit of attention.

The video shows a bright-eyed and youthful Fisher trying out for the iconic role of Princess Leia — an audition that was reportedly recorded when she was just 19 years old. It was a movie role that catapulted her into pop culture fame.

Watch the video below:

Fisher had reportedly wrapped filming on another “Star Wars” film, “Episode VII” prior to her death, according to E! News.

She died at age 60 after suffering a heart attack earlier this week.
