ScreenRant was able to catch up with Mark Hamill at the premiere of the upcoming Micky Ward bio-pic The Fighter(which is epic I may add), whose writers co-wrote with Mark Hamill the adaption for his comic The Black Pearl. In the interview Hamill talks more about his role of voicing the Joker and how secretive both Batman: Arkham City and Star Wars were.

I was lucky enough to catch a screening for The Fighter last week. As someone who is not a big fan of Bale he deserves best supporting actor hands down, he plays such a good crack head its scary and funny(mostly his character) at the same time. I was pissed there was a screening I missed tonight in Lowell(where the movie took place) that had Wahlberg, Bale, and the real Micky Ward and I live like a half hour away.

Ok has any one bought the force unleashed 2? I was thinking about it but i wanna know is it better for game system or PC? Also any star wars books on Darth Sidious or his master? have been reading the scholastic books on young ObiWan. They are'nt too bad.

CaptainProg: Mark voiced him in the 90's Xmen cartoon.

@BrutalDuke: Force Unleashed 2, by my honest opinion is a rental rather than a must-buy. The game was too short in story mode.... online play is so-so. However, great graphics... amazingly rage-a-rific when it comes to unleashing the force powers... to me, it's almost a damned cheat when you max force push/concussion.... just about EVERYTHING gets blown away. The "telekinetic" powers in pulling and controlling stuff takes a while to get used to, but other than that... everything else was sweet.

I'm a Hamill fan. He managed to make the best of of his career. Anyone seen Comic Book the Movie? Ror should revisit that.

Thats to bad, Hamill is the voice of the Joker.

Crashrendar: I don't know. He sounds a bit on the fence about cashing in his chips and walking out. Besides, look at how many celeb's 'retire' and keep coming back. I could be wrong, but it just sounds like it's in his blood to do this. Luke Skywalker may have made him famous, but many voiceover fans will always remember him as the best Joker. EVER.

@BrutalDuke I don't think it matters. I play it on Xbox and it's awesome, but I know for a fact that they didn't add anything new to the PC.
Just a bit of advice...the game is short. I didn't wanna believe it at first, but it is. I would play it on Hard if I was you, it provides a fun challenge. It's awesome for a Star Wars fan.

That "Obi-wan killed your father" thing wouldn't have been nearly as good, but it would make a really cool alternate story.

@Brutal -- DO NOT BUY!!!! The game is ridiculously short and nowhere near as good as the first. The fight with Vader is LAME!!! I would recommend skipping it all together. Couple of great new games out there are Castlevania: Lords of Shadow and Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. Playing AC right now, it is awesome, but also kinda short for an AC game. Although I believe it's more of a continuation than a sequel, pretty sure they are currently making AC 3 right now. Rent or avoid FU2, 3.5 hours of my life I will never get back.

@CaptainProg
You're thinking of the X-Men Origins Wolverine game, which is a whole lot better than X2 Wolverine's Revenge, which is the game Mark Hamill is talking about in this interview. But he did a pretty good job, but the game wasn't that good.

Mark Suffered the same curse as Heath and Orlando Bloom... He got sealed to the roll and could not break free... It took heath going gay for a day to get out of the period movies he was caught in... I think Orlando should do the same right after the last Pirates movie.... maybe go for Superman: Man of steel

DaDeaDmAn- Um, no. Apparently WB requires or better yet should require for their choice of actor for Superman to actually have a penis.

Lord of the Rings = Epic

The Fighter, althought it might be very good, can not be epic.....you [frick]ers overuse the word too damn much. It's lost it's meaning.

Best Joker of all time. Heath has NOTHING on Hamill. I wish he could get a shot at it. Lets just forget the Trickster though lol.

I can't believe he didn't win last years Best Voice category at the VGAs. I was baffled. Jack Black was good, but come on, Mark Hamill was amazing as The Joker. He and Kevin Conroy bring me memories of the old animated tv show, which was epic then lol.
