Carrie Fisher, best known as Princess Leia from the Star Wars series of movies

is being honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

The recognition for the late actress comes on May 4,

known as Star Wars Day for the date's similarity to one of the series' catch phrases,

"may the Force be with you."

"Carrie will join her Star Wars co-stars and fellow Walk of Famers Mark Hamill and Harrison Ford on this historic sidewalk,

said Ana Martinez, producer of the Hollywood Walk of Fame, in a statement.

Leia's star won't be far from her twin brother's, the organization notes:

The star for Hamill, who played Luke Skywalker, is just a few feet away

has a star just across the street.
