Mark Hamill thinks Star Wars should recast Luke Skywalker.
The advent of CGI to 'de-age' actors of a certain vintage has certainly been en vogue in the last few years, and no franchise has made heavier use of the popular computer-generated wizardry than the Star Wars saga. But now, its most celebrated star, reckons the time has come for it to be put to bed and limited in its usage.
Mark Hamill, who played Luke Skywalker in six of the nine feature films, and in episodes of The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett, has been speaking with Esquire about his career, which is - naturally - defined by his time in Star Wars.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT After Luke died in The Last Jedi, Hamill washed his hands of the series, having disagreed with the creative choices. One day, he received a visit from Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni, the showrunners for The Mandalorian - accompanied by a puppet known at the time as "Baby Yoda". Hamill met with the pair, watched their show and admitted he was impressed enough to agree to return.
"It is unusual to see yourself like that. It can't be cheap. People say, 'Oh, now you're going to be able to do a whole series of Luke post-Return of the Jedi.' I said, 'I don't think so.' First of all, they don't need to tell those stories, but if they do, they could get an age-appropriate actor." As for returning to play an older Luke? Well, as Rey's mentor, it would make sense. But on that subject, Hamill goes from opinionated to corporate on a dime. "One thing you learn working for Lucasfilm: everything is confidential," he says. "Everything is confidential. So, if I were involved, I wouldn't be able to tell you. And if I were not involved, I wouldn't be able to tell you. So, I don't know. We'll all find out together, I guess.
