Mark Hamill<\/strong> said he feels \u201cold\u201d as he reflects on the 50th anniversary of the production of Star Wars: Episode IV \u2013 A New Hope. His reflection comes amid his recent collaboration with LEGO to promite it new toy line based on LEGO Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy.<\/p>\n During an interview with USA Today<\/a>, Mark Hamill spoke about the 50th anniversary of Star Wars\u2019 production.<\/p>\n \u201cIt doesn\u2019t feel like 50 years, and it makes you feel old,\u201d the actor shared. He admitted to going through the notes he made during the film\u2019s production, which brought back many memories for him. \u201cTime flies when you\u2019re having fun!\u201d he said.<\/p>\n The Long Walk actor also recalled taking his firstborn, Nathan, to the Return of the Jedi sets, who was \u201ctotally into it.\u201d Hamill said, \u201cHe could sit in Yoda\u2019s house because he was little, [as he was] perfectly proportioned. He sat on the Emperor\u2019s throne, he was in the creature shop, and they were letting him play with things.\u201d<\/p>\n The 74-year-old added that his second son, Griffin, is not fond of the franchise because it\u2019s \u201ctoo commercial\u201d for his liking. Meanwhile, his daughter, Chelsea, \u201clikes them.\u201d<\/p>\n Mark Hamill rose to fame with his role as Luke Skywalker in the Star Wars franchise. He was 25 years old when he began filming the original film. After the original trilogy, he reprised his role by lending his voice to various Star Wars animated shows. It was followed by on-screen appearances in the modern trilogy. Furthermore, Hamill had cameos on Disney+ shows, The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett, where he was de-aged to fit the timeline.<\/p>\n After 50 years in the iconic role, the veteran said he would be stepping away from the franchise. \u201cI had my time. I\u2019m appreciative of that. I really think they should focus on the future and all the new characters,\u201d he told ComicBook.com<\/a>. The animated series Lego Star Wars: Rebuild the Galaxy was the last time he voiced Luke Skywalker.<\/p>\n While it has been a few months since the show ended, Hamill is collaborating with LEGO to promote the new Star Wars toys. The new toy lineup will reportedly use LEGO\u2019s SMART Play System<\/a>, a technology that makes the toys more interactive.<\/p>\n The post Mark Hamill on Feeling \u2018Old\u2019 as Star Wars Marks Major Milestone<\/a> appeared first on ComingSoon.net – Movie Trailers, TV & Streaming News, and More<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.aol.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Photo Credit: Lucasfilm Mark Hamill said he feels \u201cold\u201d as he reflects on the 50th anniversary of the production of Star Wars: Episode IV \u2013 A New Hope.
