Carrie done Dunne the deed

-

PRINCESS Leia lost her virginity to the lost yuppie in Martin Scorsese’s “After Hours.”

Griffin Dunne — the son of true crime writer Dominick Dunne — admitted to deflowerin­g pal Carrie Fisher. “I was doing her a favor,” he told Page Six. “She had a boyfriend and she didn’t want him to know she was a virgin and she trusted me and gave me the honor.”

Dunne, 68, added that the act itself wasn’t mechanical. “No, we were into it,” he explained. “We had a few practice sessions.”

“Look at her, she was gorgeous!” he said of the late star. “I couldn’t have been luckier,” he added before confessing he was “hardly Casanova, but I was a tad more experience­d.”

He stayed friends with the “Star Wars” actress up to her death in 2016 at 60.

“We had a core group of friends,” the “This Is Us” alum shared, adding that he’s still in contact with them via a group chat, where they share “a memory” of Fisher, “an irreverent filthy story or the funniest, most unpublisha­ble things you can imagine.”

Dunne has a memoir coming out in June titled “The Friday Afternoon Club” — which chronicles his family, including Vanity Fair scribe dad Dominick, murdered sister and “Poltergeis­t” actress Dominique and aunt Joan Didion.

Before becoming an actor, the “House of Lies” star said he wanted to be a writer or journalist — but he got kicked out of high school. “I was in Colorado in a boarding school and I got caught smoking pot,” he divulged. “Colorado, by the way, was the first state to legalize pot, so my timing was a little off.”

Dunne recently said Tim Burton was originally attached to direct the seminal 1980s NYC film “After Hours.” “It would have had a darker visual look,” he told the British Film Institute this month. “Everything would have been different . . . I think we would have looked like we were already dead and that ‘After Hours’ was taking place somewhere in the underworld. In an alternate universe, I would have loved to have seen that movie.”
