Chatting with AP News, Mark Hamill discussed a variety of topics including his comeback as Luke Skywalker in The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi and the passing of his friend of 4 decades, Carrie Fisher.
When we last saw Mark Hamill in the “Star Wars” saga, he was a mysterious hooded figure on a jagged, remote island off the coast of Ireland.
“For a cameo that brief, boy did they make me work,” Hamill jokes.
But in “The Last Jedi,” which Disney will release Dec. 15, Hamill plays a much larger role. “Star Wars” will buzz again — 34 years later — with its original hero. Luke Skywalker is back.
In a recent interview with The Associated Press, Hamill spoke by phone from Malibu, California. “It’s just the calm before the storm,” he said. “With something like this, it’s almost too high-profile for comfort.”
