Luke Lives On? Mark Hamill Clarifies He Didn’t Quit ‘Star Wars’ Franchise

Reports of Mark Hamill quitting Star Wars are, it turns out, greatly exaggerated. In a new interview, the Luke Skywalker actor clarified that he feels his time with the franchise is done but hasn’t quit. (Star Wars: The Last Jedi spoilers ahead!)

“I don’t want to make a big pronouncement like, ‘This is my decision,’” Hamill told Sunday TODAY’s Willie Geist in a new interview. “I’m just saying that it really felt like a conclusion. My character was given complete closure. I died, ironically by overdosing on the Force, I might point out.”
