Fans were left stunned when they saw Stranger Things actress Millie Bobby Brown as Princess Leia in this new Star Wars footage.
Star Wars is without question one of the most popular movie franchises of all time, with its fanbase enduring over decades. Stranger Things is one of the most popular TV shows of our generation, with the show racking up millions of fans around the world in a very short space of time. When the two collide, who knows what’s possible.
One of Star Wars’ most beloved characters is Princess Leia Organa – who was played exquisitely by the incomparable Carrie Fisher.
A new video has now surfaced online featuring Stranger Things star Millie Bobby Brown in the role of Princess Leia. What’s really stunning is that the video uses DeepFake technology to digitally place Brown’s face into the original Star Wars footage, before comparing the CGI edit with the original footage of Carrie Fisher.
