Hamill Reflects on Star Wars Legacy and Fan Debate

Mark Hamill, renowned for playing Luke Skywalker, reflected on advice from Carrie Fisher, who urged him to embrace his Star Wars fame, helping him appreciate their unique status in pop culture. Hamill contrasted George Lucas's original trilogy approach—avoiding the deaths of key characters to keep the films child-friendly—with recent Star Wars films, which have been more willing to kill off legacy characters. He also addressed ongoing fan debates about the legacy of the original characters, especially following Fisher's passing and recent narrative directions. Despite his gratitude for George Lucas and the continued support of fans, Hamill reiterated he has no interest in reprising his role as Luke, believing his story is complete.
