Prior to her death, Carrie Fisher was a positive light in many people’s lives, including the life of former costar, Corey Feldman.
“She was just very supportive and very positive and sweet. Every minute on the set with her was a pure joy, honestly,” he tells People. “We never had an argument; we never had an awkward moment.”
