Star Wars: Mark Hamill Still Wants Carrie Fisher To Replace Donald Trump's Walk Of Fame Star


There is little doubt that Mark Hamill loves using his social media presence to connect with Star Wars fans, make dad jokes, or post pictures of adorable dogs. However, the Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker actor also makes sure to let his political views known. Hamill's latest tweet once again states that Donald Trump's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame should be replaced by one for the late Carrie Fisher.

Hamill's post responds to a tweet by Democratic Coalition chairman Jon Cooper asking what would be the best present for the current President of the United States. Check it out below.

"I'd have his Walk of Fame Star updated & corrected, or even better, replace his with someone who actually deserves one," Hamill wrote.

The post certainly shocked fans who weren't aware that Fisher has not yet been given a star on the Walk of Fame. However, one fan pointed out that the stars are purchased at around $30,000.

Interestingly, someone stated that the Star Wars: The Force Awakens actress can be posthumously nominated to receive one, but it cannot be awarded until five years after her death. Nevertheless, people are hoping to start a fund so Fisher can be given her own star on the Walk of Fame.

Although Fisher passed away in 2016, she is still expected to appear as General Leia Organa in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. To make this happen, director J.J. Abrams wrote Fisher's scenes around unused footage from The Force Awakens.

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker hits theaters on December 20.
