EMILIA Clarke (above) would love to see Kit Harington play a young Luke Skywalker.

The 31-year- old actress stars alongside Kit in the awardwinni­ng TV series ‘Game of Thrones’, and she’s revealed she would like to see the dark-haired hunk play the role of the iconic sci-fi character if he’s given his own spin- off ‘Star Wars’ movie.

Asked who could fulfil the role, Emilia - who plays Qi’ra in the new ‘Solo: A Star Wars Story’ - told ‘ Entertainm­ent Tonight’: “I feel like I have to say Kit Harington. Because I have to, do you know what I mean?”

The London-born beauty also revealed just how excited she is about starring in the Ron Howard- directed movie.

Emilia explained: “My brother was a huge fan, he’s my big brother. I was always gonna do everything he told me to do, so I watched them really young (and) got into them from him.

“Then when it all came back the second time around, I became a fan all over again, because it’s just ... they’ve taken it to every level. And then when they wanted me to be in it, I’m like, ‘What? OK!’”

The long- awaited ‘Solo: A Star Wars Story’ is released later this month, and Emilia cannot wait for fans of the franchise to see the film.

She shared: “I really cannot wait for someone else to know what happens in this movie. Oh my god, I can’t wait.”
