I think we can all agree that Luke Skywalker has always represented the light side in the Star Wars universe and aside from that one instance where he attempted to kill a young Ben Solo, the future Kylo Ren, we've never really seen the Jedi Master display rage. Not even his father Darth Vader was able to lure him to the dark side and it says a lot about Luke's moral compass.
However, it seems like actor Mark Hamill has succumbed to the dark side after years of pressure. When a fan consulted the Luke Skywalker actor on what to do with his dog who's "murdering" a plushie of Luke's mentor Yoda, the acting legend shockingly gave the furbaby a pass, choosing to side with the lovable fellow instead of his master.
Twitter user @ryebreadinaz asked "Hey @MarkHamill I think my dog is part Sith; he’s murdering Yoda rn. Any advice on how to stop it?" to which the actor responded: "Let him be!" complete with a dog emoji. Is it safe to say that Luke is finally embracing the dark side? Probably. Check it out here:

Meanwhile, despite the fact that the Skywalker saga has already concluded, Hamill continues to be involved in the Star Wars franchise in some capacity. Most recently, he reprised his role as the beloved Jedi Master in The Book of Boba Fett and while it saw the unfortunate end of his partnership with Grogu aka Baby Yoda, it would be a safe bet to say that Luke will continue making appearances in the MandoVerse.
The entire Skywalker saga is available for streaming on Disney+.
