Mark Hamill might be know to many kids these days as the voice of The Joker from all those video games or that one Flash villain, but did you know that he was actually in Star Wars? Recently, Mark Hamill got a chance to relive his glory days as Luke Skywalker in the newest instalment, Star Wars Episode 7: The Force Awakens. However, Mark Hamill didn’t have much of a choice in the matter, fearing mobs of angry fans would come after him if he said no. Hamill also opened up about his voice over in the new trailer. Go ahead, give it a watch, we know you want to.
During the recent Star Wars Celebration event, Mark Hamill, opened up to crowd about how he was forced to come back for the new film (via Yahoo! Movies):
"It's not like a choice. It's like I was drafted. Could you imagine if for some reason I said 'I don't think I want to do it?' I would have all of you surrounding my house like villagers, angry villagers with lightsabers instead of torches."
Hamill also went on to discuss his voiceover in the new trailer, where he copies the famous Return of The Jedi line,
"The force is strong in my family. My father has it. I have it. My sister has it. You have that power too," misreading it as, "My father had it."
