Sure, Mark Hamill is Luke Skywalker and always will be, but the actor had to audition for the role back in the day just like everyone else. In a new video for Omaze, Hamill kicks up his feet and goes back to where it all began by reacting to his original audition tape for what would become STAR WARS. Mark Hamill notes that he met his future co-star, Harrison Ford, for the first time on that day as they filmed reading together. "[Harrison] is better in the screen test than I am and he’s off camera!" Hamill joked.
If you want the chance to have dinner with Mark Hamill as well as attend the premiere of STAR WARS: THE RISE OF SKYWALKER in Los Angeles with a friend, then why not head to Omaze and enter their contest. Each donation goes to support the USC McMorrow Neighborhood Academic Initiative, which is a program designed to prepare under-privileged students from South and East Los Angeles for admission to a college or university. Mark Hamill will reprise the role of Luke Skywalker, likely for the final time, in STAR WARS: THE RISE OF SKYWALKER on December 20, 2019. The J.J. Abrams film is set to serve as the culmination of the nine-film saga which began all those years ago with a simple farmboy getting caught up in a galactic adventure.
