Oscar Isaac, who plays Poe Dameron in the new trilogy of Star Wars was present as the guest on The Late Show. It was then he was asked about the late legendary actress and Star Wars veteran Carrie Fisher and if he had scenes with her, to this Oscar replied, "Actually a large amount of the stuff I got to do was with Carrie, which was amazing.
He further added, "I remember the first day of shooting was a scene with Carrie. And it was still — often times that first day, the filmmakers, everybody's trying to get the tone and figure it out — and I remember it was a scene where I come up and talk to her and she's very upset with me and slaps me. And [director] Rian [Johnson] kept doing it over and over. It ended up being like 27 takes of Carrie just leaning in, and every time she'd hit like a different spot on my face."
