FAN ART: How Luke Skywalker Could Look In STAR WARS EPISODE VII

FAN ART: How Luke Skywalker Could Look In STAR WARS EPISODE VII

Check out this brilliant artist's impression of how an older Mark Hamill might - and hopefully will - look when/if he steps back into the role of Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker in J.J. Abrams' new Star Wars flick..

Fans have been concerned about the actors from the original trilogy reprising their roles after so long, but if Hamill can pull off something even close to the pic above I don't think there would be too many complaints. The pic comes courtesy of the very talented Phil Noto (see more of his work by clicking the link back to his Tumblr page below) who will hopefully bring us his interpretations of the older versions of Han and Leia at some point too.

Unfortunately Hamill will never be that in shape ever again in his life.

wow he'd have to lose a lot of weight to look anything like that.

eh...looks ok

Hamill should definitely have a beard for this.

Hamill is a fatass, he won't look like this.

Sure it'll take a lot of work, but these guys will have the best personal trainers money can buy..I think it's possible.

I think people are underestimating what Hamill can do with his body. He'll be fine.

Also, Hamill doesn't have to be cut. He just needs to be appropriately fit for the role. Even if he gets to how Jeff Bridges was in 'Tron Legacy' he'll be fine.

It could happen. I'm itching to see Mark Hamill do something live-action again.

That looks good, but too good. He'll never get into THAT good of shape at his age. It is hamill though,so he loves the fans too much to not do anything

I have a bad feeling about this

You guys make it seem like it's impossible for him to get into shape for the movie if need be. Who's to say they will even ask him to lose weight for the movie?

Are you kidding me?? Luke beat the Empire...he can get as fat as he wants..






When any of YOU can beat the empire then we'd see if u don't feel like spending the rest of your life eating chocolate cake, twinkles, filet mignon and lobster..in that order.

you do NOT have the force!! stop hating on luke dammit..and kiss the ring.

If Hamill reprises Luke, he will lose the weight. The contract and the cash will make it so. Engage!

2015 release date means filming in 2014. its march of 2013. he better be in the gym right now. thats a good 50 lbs at least from the last pic i saw of him.

robometrallador - 3/12/2013, 8:50 PM
pefect... he has to put down some weight though
Tainted87

The art does make him look more like Kenneth Branagh than Mark Hamill at present....

He's gonna be wearing a Jedi Cloak so weight won't be a huge issue.
Tony93
Tony93 - 3/12/2013, 9:04 PM
They know what they are doing if they bring him back, ofcourse hes going to lose weight
same goes for lea

I bet Hamill will stick with the bangs and not go with the edgy up-do

William H Macy as Luke

Google image "old luke skywalker". I think this is the best we can hope for, and I'm not mad at it.

Everyone is bashing Mr. Hamill for gaining wait. I take it you all are pro bodybuilders and in the best possible shape. Apparently no one has heard of CGI.. they could make him look like Kate Moss in post-production if they wanted to! Bunch of judgmental [frick]tards!

PS - the above photo is FAN-ART!! That is one persons interpretation!!

I think Hamill could do it. I mean they would give him a trainer or he could get one himself to lose the weight.

Old people look old.So what? Thank god fanboys back in 1977 were not posting pictures of Alec Guinness or Peter Cushing from 1941.Oh the years had been rough on them too.

If Hamill (or Carrie Fisher for that matter) appear in the next Star Wars film they will
have a wonderful thing called "Makeup" and "Hairstyling" done to them before getting in front of a camera.

They will have costumes cut to hide extra pounds and be shot with the right "Lighting"to hide bags under the eyes and crows feet.

Post production "touchups" will be done to the finished shots. And that's not even accounting for whatever work personal trainers and cooks can do to help slim them down before shooting starts.

Jeeze,some kids here think Hamill will just roll out of bed and show up for work with a turkey drumstick in his mouth.

Hamill has done some great animation work over the years since Return of the Jedi,but Episode Seven would be the biggest second chance in life one could imagine. It's a chance to bookend his cinematic legacy as he is pushing 60. The
guy will not want to f.ck that up by looking like sh.t.

That's a beast look.

looking at it agian, he kinda looks like an older version of this guy...





Ewan Mcgregor should just play Mark Hamill

He'll be fine - i dont think the creative team behind the new movies will just have a "who cares, we'll take em as they come" attitude, im sure the'll be getting them to loose a few kgs and appropriately slim down for the roles. This is a normal part of preparing for a movie. They'll get the help they need and im sure that they will all look great.
