Mark Hamill would like to see Luke and Solo have more time together in ‘Force Awakens’

MARK Hamill would have liked to have seen a final scene with Luke Skywalker and Han Solo in ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’.

The 65-year- old actor - who portrays the Jedi Knight in the science- fiction franchise - only has one regret about the 2015 movie, and that is that he wishes Luke came to the rescue of Princess Leia ( Carrie Fisher) by saving her life before her son, Darth Vader, killed her on-screen husband and his father, Han Solo (Harrison Ford).

Speaking to website www. fandango.com, he admitted: “When I was reading it, I thought if Leia is trying to mentally contact me and she is unsuccessful, she’ll rush to his (Han’s) aid and get into some dire situation, and that’s when I show up.

“I save her life, and then we rush to Han, and then we are in the same position that Rey and Finn and Chewie are -- too late to save him, but witnesses.”

Meanwhile, Mark has said that his character could turn to the dark side in new movie ‘ The Last Jedi’.

Speaking at the Star Wars Celebration in Florida over the weekend, he teased: “It’s possible, anything’s possible.

However, he quipped that he has “short term memory loss” and “lost credibility with the public through social media because I lie all the time”.

Mark also admitted that he doesn’t agree with “everything” that has been decided for his character by producer Rian Johnson in the forthcoming film.

He said: “I think you’ll find some things that’ll surprise you.

“They certainly surprised me. I said to Rian, I think I fundamentally disagree with everything you’ve decided for me. Now having said that, I have to accept it, get my mind around it and do my best to realise your vision. Once I got into it, a lot of my fears went away.” — BANG Showbiz
