I wonder where he learned to lie like that...at the academy...with you Jerry I knew they threw you out for a reason!

I'm thinking tall...will that get me over to the 6'4 height anytime soon or do I need to "stretch my legs"

Get a dominatrix to tie you up to a rack and spend the next 3 months on it, every day...that might help

Alexander

I wonder where you got that idea from

Thanks, but no

Mark Hamil has become extremely rich with his Wing Commander thingies

I'd like to see Jaina, Jacen, Anakin Solo, Mara Jade and Ben Skywalker .The girl from Alias/Elektra would make a great Mara Jade

Bronson

If a series were to be on the air, I guess we could expect Mark Hamill would probably be in the first episode as Luke Skywalker to introduce the audence to the show.

Cryostar

That's very likely Bronson...most rumors have him as a re-occuring character at best...perhaps 5 epsidoes in a 22 episode season.

Don't forget the tons of voice work he's done too dev. Batman, Batman Beyond, and the 500000 bad sci-fi movies that he's made.

Jennifer Garner? She's in my top five list I think she's got an Alias contract for at least a couple of more years.

Hamill on possible Skywalker return
Posted on Wed, 9-Feb-2005

Might there be something in those rumours about Mark Hamill strapping on the saber holster again for a "Star Wars" TV series?

IESB caught up with the actor - forever known as Luke Skywalker - at the DVD Exclusive Awards, who hinted that, yes, there might well be a "Star Wars" TV series in the works (Guess it's safe to say then that I've spoke to some official troopers who've also confirmed it - but were hoping the news would stay under lock-and-key for a spell) and that there's always a possibility that an aged Luke Skywalker might make an appearance.

"Never Say Never", Hamill cheekily tells the site, stressing that "He hasn't heard anything officially about it", though.

Hamill says a "Star Wars" TV series is a good idea because it would mean it'd probably concentrate more on story than special effects. He said it could be "like Tales of the Jedi Knight - which they do so well in the comics".

He said he'd also welcome the chance to work with his good friend - and "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" director Kevin Smith, who is rumoured to be creating the spin-off - again, but if it did come off, it'd depend on his schedule.

The site asked Hamill whether it might follow the rumoured storyline of Skywalker, now older, taking on the Kenobi-esque role of a mentor, and training a young chap. "That was when he [George Lucas] was planning on doing another trilogy after this one [the prequels]. Back in the day he asked me if I'd do that and pass the saber onto the new young hope".

Hamill also said he's keen to make a sequel to comic-con fave "Comic Book : The Movie", reprising his role as filmmaker Don Swann. "I think it would be interesting to see Don Swan pick the right screenwriter, the right director....I said we could open with a trailer of the actual movie and the rest of it would be more like Robert Altman's The Player where you see this totally lost character that I play, this clueless guy, lost in Hollywood".

Next up though, he's doing a film version of "Black Pearl", which is partly financed. "I can't announce who is involved at this point", says Hamill, adding that it'll hopefully film sometime later this year.

My Mara Jade pick (like it would ever happen though...) Gillian Anderson.

She would be absolutely perfect, IMO.

Cryostar

Anyone except for Shannon McRandle is fine with me!

On a better note...Starwars, by proxy, confirmed that there will be a starwars live action tv series coming up.

If you read their survey carefully, you will note that future improvements to be voted on include coverage (hyperspace) of the live action TV series.

Alexander

I like this title for a possible SW TV series.

"The Chronicles of the Jedi Knights"

Alex

Cryostar

I like that....very nice touch Alex.

I wouldn't mind so much if they skipped a couple of generations after ROTJ...you know, get some space.

Alexander

It was a 20 year period between ROTS and ANH...and then if Luke appears as a "mentor" character in the series...you can go 20 more years...so 40 years after ROTS. I would like that, b/c it means the writers/creators will have more creative freedom to go with the show and won't really have to "honor" where ROTJ ended.

Alex

Chris

Oh, I like that too.

Totally agree that putting some time between a possible series and ROTJ would be a good idea.

Cryostar

20 years after ROTJ puts you smack dab in the middle of the Post ROTJ EU, and about 10 years before NJO happens....very bad timing
