Luke Skywalker might have turned into a jaded and troubled old hermit in Lucasfilm's sequel trilogy, but in real life, Mark Hamill continues to play the part of a benevolent hero. Dressing up as a stormtrooper, the Star Wars legend decided to lend a hand to the Force For Change, even though he's technically a bit too short for the role.
A Star Wars fan present during Hamill's little stint with the Star Wars-themed nonprofit decided to share a video of the actor's gig as a stormtrooper on Twitter. Retweeting the post, the Star Wars legend decided to add a few details about his disguise.
"I did this for the 'Force For Change' charity- a really great cause," Hamill said. "The best part was spending all day talking to people who had no idea who I was. I was tempted to unmask at times, like when that woman said her favorite actor was Mark Hamilton!"
Check out Hamill's post down below:
It's lovely how much seeing Hamill go around in disguise for charity. We wonder whether any of the fans that he met while dressed as a stormtrooper had an inkling of who he was. The video's pretty fun to watch too – Hamill's full of antics, which isn't a surprise considering how much a joker the actor is (yes, pun intended).
Right now, Hamill is set to reprise his role as Luke Skywalker in Star Wars: Episode IX. However, it remains unclear whether the actor will be seen in visions, flashbacks, or physical scenes as a Force Ghost.
Star Wars: Episode IX premieres December 20, 2019.
