On Christmas, I saw Rogue One with my family, and was impressed at what Disney had done to bring back the likenesses of Peter Cushing and Carrie Fisher.
Peter Cushing played Grand Moff Tarkin, a character who they couldn't just cut from a movie featuring the Death Star so heavily (despite Cushing being dead since 1994). In addition, the likeness of Carrie Fisher was brought back to play a young Leia.
At the time, I didn't know Carrie Fisher would be dead 2 days later, from heart attack complications. Only a few days later, her mother, Debbie Reynolds died as well (presumably due to a broken heart).
Here is a chart showing cardiac mortality around the holidays.
